Hi Linda! Skipping meals for the first few days in a new home is really common for baby leopard geckos. The big things to check are warmth (the floor on the warm side around 88 to 92°F, with the heat source on a thermostat), a warm hide, a cool hide and a moist hide, and small live insects no bigger than the space between his eyes, offered in the evening. If he still hasn't eaten in about a week, or looks thin or weak, a reptile vet is the best next step.

Any other leopard gecko keepers have tips for getting a new baby to eat?
