It could be his poop. I have one that every once in a while passes a poop like that and then she is fine. I would keep an eye on it and see if it happens continually and then go from there. Also keep an eye for any other symptoms...ie...not eating...lethargic etc.

Actually water quite often can cause them to have to poop. When a leo is impacted they often suggest a warm bath because it makes them want to go.

it could also have something to do with the feeders. sometimes feeders that are gutloaded with alot of greens will make geckos poop a little different colors, so if you got feeders from a new source or are gutloading your with something new...it could be the cause. just keep an eye on your gecko and as long as everything else seems normal, i wouldnt worry too much. but if you continue to be concearned, get it to a reptile specialist vet.

A picture would likely help us determine whether or not its a healthy poop, unhealthy poop or maybe a regurge.
