Not real up on what is going on here, but it looks like you just got "them" ??? Cresteds as I see it ???

The only reason I put my 2 cents in here is that you do NOT WANT TO PANIC. Cannot say this more emphatically. Gex are strange animals, they like to fool us into thinking that there is something wrong. Especially when you get a new animal.

Remember nothing is going to starve in a few days, or really a few weeks or more (these are cold bloded animals). Do the husbandry thing right. Give them the appropriate environment per species, (humidity, temps, that sort of thing). Make them feel safe, hiding places, branches, plants, what they want. All else will follow if the animals are otherwise healthy.

Ah yes, The Axiom, "When in doubt, do nothing". This, as simple as it is, has served me well over the years. Good luck with the gex, contact me if you want...
