new gecko

Question
Hi. I've owned more pets than i even know about but lizards are a new realm for me. I just purchased a young leopard gecko and had a few questions. He hasn't really been eating anything at night. When i put meal worms near him, he eats them but wont venture out on his own. And yesterday, he wouldn't even look at the worms. I'm wondering if mabye he's stressed out and if there is anything i can do for him. Thanks!

Answer
You hit the nail on the head.  Sounds to me like he's stressed.  You should just leave him alone for a day.  Take all of the crickets and meal worms or any other kind of food you have in there (leave the water) out of his cage don't touch him don't even feed him.  Have fun with him.
Hope this helps,
