hello, are you sure its a leopard gecko? well anyways, is it eating? they are nocturnal so you dont really need a heat lamp. you need an undertank heater. without heat the gecko may have been hybernating i guess, or trying to hide because its body couldnt function properly or digest food. the ground temp needs to be at 90 degrees. and if you have plants i am assuming you have some sort of loose substrate wich is not good. you should put it on papertowels. this is all for a leopard gecko if that is what it is. give me some more info on the tank you have set up, what you are feeding, if it is eating, and what the temps are. the loose dirt can impact the animals stomach and it could die.
