Question
Hello there, i have two leopard geckos and they both eat fine. However, they do not poop every day or every other day. But they still do poop. But just not like every single day. Is this normal for them? Thanks for all your help Thea.

Answer
Hi Matt, Doesn't sound like you have anything to worry about. As long as they are eating well and the droppings look normal, whether they arrive at one, two or sometimes even three day intervals isn't a problem. The gut transit time is longer in adults and is also affected by temperature, hydration and the type of feeder insects you are using.
