Gargoyles don't shed on a regular basis like leopard geckos do (leopard geckos shed once a month, every month). Gargoyle's sort of have a random schedule to shedding. It could be anywhere from a month to three months after their last shed. You'll be able to tell when it's going to shed because you'll notice the gecko being duller in color than usual (even when fired up or down).
My regular routine is clean once a week, set out fresh food every other day, mist nightly, and a 5 min handling session every other night (mine are just starting handling- I'll increase frequency as they get more accustomed to me). They seem to be adjusting to living with me just fine following this routine- they've been with me for about 2.5 weeks.
