Is my gecko healthy?

That brown powder is Repashy Calcium Plus. All of his mealworms are dusted with it, and he gets approximately 5 a night. He either eats all of them or none of them, depending on his mood. He still will not climb onto my hand. I wish I had a more trusting relationship with him. He has a dry hide, which he never goes into, a moist paper towel hide, and his rock with a 91F heat pad underneath, which he is constantly under. Water's changed every other day, small plastic cap. No lighting. Thinking about trying Dubia roaches from the local shop when his fridge worms run out. Mealworms are gutloaded weekly with zucchini.

How am I doing?

He lloks like a nice healthy gecko. Not thin, not fat, just right. Everything in your setup looks good also. The only thing that I can really think of is to use different vegetables for gutloading. Your gecko isnt going to get the most nutrition possible from just zucchini. Try carrots and other high nutrition foods. There is a good gutloading link but I can't seem to find it right now.

He's a very pretty gecko btw :)
