It's on the left side of the animal and surrounds the stomach. Right underneath the ribcage is the liver, and it's triangular in shape.

Yeah, it's very odd, mine are getting fecal samples today (hopefully if i can scrounge up the cash, might have to wait till friday though) it's posible that it is not the spleen that i am seeing, if the spleen is triangular, because the dot on my little geckos is completley round. I really hope that it is not something serious.
