is my gecko ok?

[reds_21]

Sunday we bought a leopard gecko, we got him home and in about 2 hours he was eating meal worms and crickets.

monday we got home and he was still sleeping in his humid box. monday night around 11pm he was still sleeping.

tuesday morning, same thing. he is sleeping in his hide box.

we placed some meal worms in a bowl in case he was looking for food throughout the night but they were all there come morning.

is this normal? shouldnt he be eating every night as well as being active?
could he possibly be still stressed and trying to adapt to his new home?

please help, little worries here

yes he could be stressed and getting used to his new home. do you know if he is getting ready to shed? what are4 your temps? both warm spot and cool side

 

[reds_21]

well, im not home right now to check the cool side but the humid side is in the low-mid 90's.

he is still alive, i can see him breathing and opening his eyes every once in awhile.

im just worried about him not eating

If he appeared healthy when you bought him then he's probably just adjusting to his new home (this can take several weeks). How big is this gecko?

 

[reds_21]

he/she is a juvenile, maybe 3-4". once we can hold him i'll check his/her sex

 

[got spots?]

they r nocturnal fyi, but maybe it is lazy like mine =]
