Gecko Not Pooping?

[Ruby]

My gecko hasn't pooped for four days...is this normal? I fed him six crickets prior and he's been drinking water, so is he just digesting solid food?

What kind of substrate are you using? It might have an impaction from ingesting substrate.

Check carefully, too. they like to hide it. Usually always in the same area.

He pooped last night so all is well

Start Feeding your Gecko with a Syringe Full of water. The problem may not be fully gone. He could be experiencing Dehydration which is not allowing him to poop very easy. make sure you feed Mealworms before water because him eating is more important. But trust me your going to be disappointed when that comes back. So to ensure he stays healthy he needs water

He pooped 12 hours after his most recent feeding and he's been drinking regularly--it's most likely gone.

You can never be too sure

Yeah, he's pretty picky about drinking his water, as he only drinks it when it's close to overflowing, or I guess it could be he doesn't see it until it's full.
