hi all
well i took my female leopard gecko out two nights ago to feed and handle her (she was purchased from a place that had her hand raised and feed). the nexd day i was cleaning out her tank and i found the 2 butter worms (one stil alive!), one meal and silk worms i had fed her the night befor throwen up in her hide!
this has never happend b4, im kind of freaked out because a few sites iv checked out says this could be a parasite! and i am currently housing her with a male for the breeding season.
is this normal???should i be worried?? any advice?????
thx soo much!

temps sound to cool. Bring your hot side temp up to around 32.
