Its good he ate the skin, good source of calcium. Sometimes they wont eat before a shed, try a day or two after the shed and he probly will eat.

also the change of the light could ve also caused it to not eat it may have triggered a cool down and would cause it not to eat. |

A lot of Geckos don't eat before they shed so, that was probably the reason. The change of light could of possibly be the reason too. It was a good thing the Gecko ate her shedding though. since she was already full grown she probably ate a lot of it and got some calcium.  |
