it's possible to have that happen- it's just that most people don't see it right after it's evacuated, so they don't notice the liquid. it can just mean your gecko is well-hydrated. though the feces and urates should be separate- when they are not, this can often be a sign of parasites. if your gecko is anything other than fat, i would take their fecal sample, mist it, put it in a tupperware in the fridge, and then make an appointment to take it to a herp vet to get analyzed within the next two days. some normal vets may be able to do this for you as well.
