gecko seems shy suddenly

peterparker Mar 03, 2004 05:26 AM

I have a juvenile crested gecko. For the past two weeks he has been reletively active (we just got him, so he obviously need time to adjust) but lately he has been very sluggish and seems to sleep in/hide in his daytime spot alot. He seems to be eating just fine and had a very easy shed last week. Any suggestions?

Is he inactive in the day or night,if he's inactive in the day thats because he's nocturnal.

Sorry, read your response the wrong way. He was inactive during the night, but seems to be fine now. Thank you none the less!!
