I got my gecko a week ago. He finally ate three mealworms last night. He threw them up a little while ago. They looked whole. Is this normal? My cage temps and everything else seem to be alright. What is the problem? Thanks.

This is not normal.
That being said, it may or may not be serious. You just got the gecko, so it *could* be stress induced from being moved into a new place and having to get used to new surroundings. However, it could also be a sign of a larger problem. You wouldn't be wrong to get the little guy (or girl) to a vet for a checkup immediately upon purchase as a precaution anyway, and with something like this happening, it might be an even better idea than usual...
