There is a breeder in Florida who classify their gecko as a
"Golden Gecko" - these were simply a colour phase of
leopard gecko. I dont know if this might be what was at the fair?
Also, we were told to feed on similar food to leopard geckos, but have not
yet seen them eat - it is possible that they only do at night, but even when
we sit in the room with a night-light on, we see nothing - we've tried brown
and black crickets, mealworms, waxworms and small locusts. Any info or
advice would be much appreciated,

You might want to try contacting the people you got them off
explain what is occuring and seeing if they can advise you furthur.
Get them checked by a reptile vet. If you are offering the correct diet
- try some "stimulap" maybe it will help to kick start their appetite.
They may be a little stressed & geting used to their surroundings.
