Answer #1

Maybe its diet needs to be adjusted. Sounds to me like its had the runs or something for a while? Sorry cant help more…

Answer #2

well I have 3 geckos and this is never happend before so what I would do is go to a local petco or a pet store that holds geckos and ask them if they know what is wroung with you baby gecko

Answer #3

sounds like a rectal prolapse to me. a rectal prolapse is when the membrane that lines the rectum protrudes outside the rectum. this can happen in cases of constipation, straining, etc. who knows what your gecko has been up to. I would take it to a vet specializing in geckos, as the membrane can become dry and this will create major problems.
