This is a commen question and you really shouldnt worry as they will just be seteling in. were they together in the shop as they may have bred and you female may have eggs.
just a thought as if she is you should get a laying box in soon.

as above really, let them settle before you worry too much.

Also try not to offer such a big range of food to start. Stick with the brown crickets that the shop used then slowly offer other types.

Good luck.

To back up what the others have said, give them time to fully settle in (I know it's hard not to worry). Do as Scott has advised and only offer foods they are used to initially, give them a good few weeks before offering new food types.

In the meantime have you read this article? If you haven't bought a book on Crested geckos yet then, it's a great source of reference in the meantime.

Enjoy your new pets. Very Happy
