I have never seen many of my geckos drink. Are you sure your leo never uses the water dish? If you provide only the water dish do you still consistently see urates?

I'm not sure there's much you can do. Just don't mess with her and keep checking discretely. If you get worried about her because it seems different than last year, contact a vet.

I'm not sure I understand the problem. Are you saying that the floor and air temps are the same day and night? If that's the case, it's fine. If it's otherwise, please provide more details.
