That gecko looked too small to do any real damage. A mouse that size would be more dangerous.

He bite my snake but no mark was left.. It was a baby gecko and it was barley able to bite him! He moves so much faster after feeding him geckos. They have more protein and softer bones than pinkies making it easy for him to digest it!!

Dude. Your snake isn't regurgitating because the pinkies are hard to digest. Something else is definitely wrong and you need to find out what.

I would also check your gecko suppliers as wc lizards are full of parasites.

How old is your snake? Two months is a little long for a snake that's only on pinkies.

He is about 6-7 months. I have had for almost 3 months

I haven't watched the video but I think you should check your setup. Seems pretty odd that it stopped eating month after you got it.

Yeah, what are your temps, humidity, how many hides do you have, and enclosure size?

Then it's something you did. Who told you gecko's have more protein? Also, why would you want your prey item to have softer bones? If the prey has a more developed skeletal system it will gain much more nutrition. Have you ever felt how soft and malleable a pink it?
