lately my gecko hasnt been very active since i have moved. he used to walk around and eat (meal worms) on a daily basis. where i used to live it was a bit warmer in the house and in a room with very little traffic (bedroom) he is now placed in a living room where its a bit colder in the room which is why i thought he might just be hibernating. since the move he just lays in the corner by a heat rock and sleeps most of the time. he doesnt eat nearly as much as he used to as well. this sounded like hibernating symptoms but it happend over the coarse of one day which kinda scared me so i was just hoping to get some feed back to make sure its just that hes hibernating and that he isnt sick. -thanks

He is probably a little stressed out with the move, and the fact its a little colder most probably triggered his brumation, However, I would remove that heat rock out of your enclosure asap, they can create hotspots and burn your gecko, I would highly reccomend the use of an UTH connected up to a stat.
