My new crested gecko doesn't seem to be very active at night. Most times I peak, I find him in pretty much the same position, usually hanging out like a little monkey in the ficus tree. He doesn't seem frightened, or even hiding (although he's well camoflaged). Shouldn't he be foraging around?
I've had him a week. He's 4-6 months old, and seems to be eating well. He looks healthy. We put a few crix in just to check that he was okay, and he pounced after them, but mostly stayed in the same general location (below the ficus tree) and let the crix come to him.
He may actually be foraging and then returning to the same position. We did find him clinging to the screen on top, one time. Is he perhaps feeling timid in his new surroundings, or are they pretty sedentary (and adorable) geckos? I know I'm a worrying mom, and these are still new surroundings, but want to be sure he's doing okay.
