It is not poop, it�s seamen. A few people have posted after seeing this behavior, and do not worry it is normal. Male crested gecko�s get �excited� sometimes, like when handling or cage cleaning. Our males, even the younger ones do it occasionally when they are handled for long periods of time. Afterwards they clean themselves, a behavior I have seen in a lot of reptiles after copulation. So like I said it�s normal, gross, but normal =)
