Crickets in poo

[jmalloy]

Hello again :blushing:

I was cleaning out my geckos poo again and on inspection I found a cricket head and a leg in it

the temp in the basking area was 29- 31 but I have turned it up to32 - 33C

I have posted a picture of him or her does he look OK to you

Are you dusting and gutloading your feeders?

 

[jmalloy]

yes i dust once per week

and they get gut loaded with carrots potatoes and rocket/ cabbage 24 hours previous

Here is another shot of him basking

 

[gizmo143]

looks good
how old?

 

[jmalloy]

I dont know I have only had him 3 weeks he/she is still young

he has defiantly got fatter and longer since i have had him hes now about 7-8 inches long.

I would like to know what morph he may be and any opinions on age as well as if the crickets in the poo are OK

very grateful for advice

It's probably somewhere in the 6-8 month range... You should be able to determine sex soon. The undigested cricket parts could be due to poor heat. What are your temperatures and what do you use for heat?
I recently adopted 2 leopard geckos that never had any heat for the 3 years they've been alive. I got them and put them on heat and for the first few times they pooped it was the same as yours- undigested cricket parts. About a week or so after being on proper heat their poo started looking normal.

it was 29 to 31 C but I have turned it up to 32 - 33 C

I use an under tank heating mat with a thermostat
