Leo not eating since tuesday night, but throwing up???

[mcarthon]

My leo seems to be about to shed so he hasnt eaten for a few days and today he throws up?? What could he have thrown up it was straight white worm looking thing. But hes never eaten any wax worms only crix and mealworms. I just purchased him a couple weeks ago. Please help thanks.

Hello Mcarthon um whear did you get your leo from? and if I was you I call a vet that knows about reptiles and make appointment with them cuz it could be some kind of praities he might have and if you wait it could be fatal to him in the mean time keep a real good eye on your leo and make sure it does not get worse good luck.

Are you sure that's a worm and not shed skin? They often eat their own shed. It's still not normal for him to regurgitate it. But that may at least be the answer to your white worm mystery.

Also, as far as the not eating thing goes, make sure to check temps, humidity, etc. Geckos in general tend to not eat well if proper husbandry techniques are not followed.

That does kind of look like shed skin. Maybe he did shed and he couldnt digest it cuz his temps arent quite high enough on the warm side?? Hows his belly heat on the warm side?
