    If its only with you a day or so then you really need to give it 5-7 days to "settle in" to its new home.
    Question to ask yourself:
    1.Temps ok?You need 30-32 c for leopard geckos.I recommend an ordinary house hold bulb at one end to do this for you.12 hours on 12 hours off.
    2.Lighting-They dont need uvb so the bulb above will fulfill their light/heat needs.
    3.Is it eating ok?Crickets/mealworms are fine for Geckos.
    4.Substrate--If its a baby use paper towels and not sand.Sand can kill a gecko as they eat it with their food.
    5.Hiding spots.They need 2,one at the hot end and one at the cool end.A plant pot cut lengthtways will do for both.Spray the hot one daily with one of those misting bottles for humidity and to help with shedding.

    This should help you out to get started.
