Gargoyle Gecko Winter Appetite Changes
Quick answer
Some gargoyle geckos eat somewhat less during the cooler, shorter days of winter even indoors. If temperature and humidity are correct and weight stays stable, this is usually a normal seasonal pattern rather than illness.
- Key check
- Stable weight
What to check
Confirm the enclosure hasn't dropped into an uncomfortable temperature range and that misting has stayed consistent through any seasonal heating changes at home.
When to be concerned
A steady drop in weight, rather than a modest and stable dip in appetite, warrants a vet check.
