Try placing the "raisons" in the place you want him to poop in. Then try cleaning out the enclose if the later doesn't work.

The person above means raisins, and they ment,that you could put them in the spot where you want the gecko to go the bathroom, in order to fake out your gecko and make him think that the raisins are poop.

If there idea doesn't work, try moving the cool hide to a different location in the cool end.

Not actual raisins! I meant the poop, you know, they kind if look like rai...never mind. Take the poop that is in front of the hide and put it where you want him to poop. If that doesn't work, then completely clean out the enclosure, and see if he does it again. If he does, then move the hide. If that doesn't work...I dunno, Im out of ideas.
