It says on Wikipedia that naturally Leopard geckos are nocturnal -- are your Leopard geckos generally awake during night time or day? It also says that they live in the desert, but here in Florida I associate geckos with water. Does your leopard gecko have water in its habitat?
they may be nocturnal, but theres actually different kinds of nocturnal. some animals are awake all night, but ive noticed my leopard geckos are most awake in the evening, then they nap throughout the night, and are awake again for a bit in the morning. they are from parts of asia, india, and pakistan, ive just learned there a few different subspecies of leopard geckos based on the environment they are found in. most are found in the deserts, but few can also be found in the mountains and the places where trees meet the desert. other than a bowl of water, they do not need any more than that.
