I was feeding one of my baby Marbled geckos (Christinus marmoratus) very small crickets and it regurgitated it up.

Is this anything to be concerned about?
 
Do you have a heat mat? Regurgitation usually occurs when the temperature is too cool for the gecko to digest it's food so it throws it up.
 
No I don't use a heat mat for them...should I get one?
 
As long as they are indoors they should be fine, marbled geckos occur all over Melbourne. Has it happened a lot or just once?
 
I've got them kept in my room, which is warm with the heater on...this is the first time its happened
 
Slow feeding and slowly increase over next few weeks, if it happens again do the same process. Try smaller crickets or even baby roaches.
