My gecko has a bump on its belly. What is it? What can I do at home?

My baby gecko had a bump on her stomach and I’m not sure what it is and I don’t have money to take her to the veterinarian.

Your gecko may have a small abscess that has formed because of a wound/injury. If you are unable to take her to the vet just keep an eye on it for now. If it gets larger or causes Mica to not want to eat or drink, then you will need to have her checked out. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Best of luck.
