This morning Kumar came out of his den, opened his mouth real wide and regurgitated at least one cricket and wax worm and some slime around it. What gives? He has two dens, one at 90-92 degrees and the other den is 78-80. Could it just be the stress of moving and being in a new set up?

there are many reasons he may have regurgitated it could be from his new home but he may also have a parisite. Whats his stool like is it runny or firm like a little pellet? Post a pic of him

At the store he was the only gecko in the tank so I looked at the droppings in there and they were all firm. He hasn't pooped yet, only have had him 24 hours now. I'm a veterinary student and actually work in the clinical pathology lab so I can have samples of my pets looked at for free, so when he gives me a nice sample I'll bring it in to check for parasites.

I'm thinking it was a combo of over eating and stress of the ride and new habitat. I mean he chowed down 3 or 4 good sized crickets plus 3 wax worms. By the way. How often can/should I feed the wax worms? I'm trying to give him as varied a diet as I can.

Oh, also what age are they considered to be full grown?

Pictures to come but he has been sleeping all day in his hot den. The set up is nice, but it makes taking him out of the den nearly impossible because the opening is small and it is mainly buried.

people sometimes just jump to conclusions to fast, he probably ate to much...you said he ate a wax worm..i had a leo that every time he ate a wax worms he would regurge..so just make sure the food isnt to large for him and dont over feed, he should be fine
