Crested Geckos are nocturnal. So it would worry me if your gecko did move about quite a bit during the day.

Besides that, are you feeding it just crickets? If so I'd suggest switching to a mixed diet, T-Rex makes a crested gecko diet which you can mix with a bit of water in a cup and leave out for him, Repashy Superfoods also makes one which can be ordered online. You could do that when you come home from work and night and then go to sleep, just be sure to clean up what he didn't eat when you wake up.

Crickets can still be fed a bit, once or twice a week should be ok. If he doesn't take them it's not a big deal as long as you're using a complete diet. Also, make sure the crickets are appropriately sized for him, you have Leos so I'll assume you know the proper size a cricket should be.
