Geckos Vomiting

JWags Jan 07, 2005 01:46 AM

I have 3 geckos. One eats like a pig and is quite large, the other two are finicky and eat in streaks. The problem is, when their appetites reappear, they eat multiple food items and end up vomiting most of them back up in various forms. I believe it is because their digestive systems shut down a bit when they don't eat. Any suggestions for preventing this and keeping them from going on these unhealthy streaks. Temperature is consistent from a UTH and they are all healthy in terms of parasites, etc...

Thanks.

you are sure they are parasite-free? that sounds like parasites to me, like when my girl slinky had them. other than that, don't feed them large quantities of food at one time.
