No, he's not lethargic at all, but he likes to lay in weird ways like that. He's not sluggish in anyway. Just lounges around like a lazy lizard sometimes. The pictures are taken on different days/times. I can get actual pictures of him this very moment if it's necessary, but I promise you they aren't much different than what those look like. He's always got wide alert eyes.
He spends time equally in the basking and not in basking. He regulates himself good. The temps (I did say before) are between 100-105F basking area and 80-85 on the cooler end. He usually sleeps in that big log thing, and a little bit after I turn the light on he goes right to his basking spot gets warmed up, starts getting frisky inside the tank, gets his freeroam, goes back in the tank, basks some more, then will move around inside his tank again, until he finds his place to sleep.
Like I said, there is absolutely nothing different in anyway other than him not eating. He's done this to me before when he was only on crickets. I decided to try supers and then that got his appetite up again, he was crazy for the worms. Now he's turning his nose up to the supers but still has no want for the crickets either. I have a hunch that he might just be trying to tell me to switch up his food again. I have mini mealworms for my Leopard Geckos, and I gave him one of them, he ate it, but only that one, nothing more.
As for getting him in the sun, I take him out on his leash pretty often. Not so much these past few days (and probably for the rest of the season) since it's only been a high of 70-75 here now (and probably cooler as the weeks go on).
