Hey guys, I have had my new Fat-Tailed gecko for about two weeks now. I did a lot of research before buying her, don't worry. I have noticed though that she is ALWAYS hiding. Regardless of the time of day/night I look for her she is always in her little cave. I know she is nocturnal, but even in the night she is in her cave. I was actually concerned that she wouldn't come out to eat, so I always feed her in a separate cage. She eats plenty-- no lack of appetite here. She munches down on those crickets like there is no tommorow. I don't think there is anything wrong, but you can never be to sure. If anyone has any advice on getting her to come out and play, let me know. Thanks a million.

Having only had her for two weeks, it might be she's still adjusting. On the other hand the ones I have rarely "come out to play" till after midnight LOL. Just drop a half dozen crickets in with her before you go to bed and check in the morning for any who might have escaped her wrath.
