The crested gecko is a solitary reptile. When introduced into a new environment, surroundings or terrarium they must go through an acclimation period. What this means, is that the crested gecko will take anywhere from 2-6 weeks to adjust to their new home. During this period, the animal may or may not eat as much as normal, be as active as they usually would or may even be darker in coloration as they are experiencing a little bit of stress. Don't be alarmed. Be sure to check your terrarium daily for excrement being left behind. This will allow you to have a peace of mind and to rest assure that the animal is eating and is healthy, but is just taking some time to acclimate. During this 2-6 week period, the animal is also "quarantined" meaning; that they are not exposed to other geckos/ animals. this will give the animal more than enough time to get used to it's own surroundings, while you as the keeper, are ensuring the health of all your previously owned animals. Sometimes when purchasing a new gecko, internal or external parasites can be transfer from one animal to another. The 6 week period will ensure that there can be no exchange in parasites.
