One of the trio of leo's I brought does not eat any live food at all.... I do put mealies in a bowl in viv with them, but also a bowl of dried mealies, as previous owner fed these as a 'snack'. I've had them over a month now, and she does not appear to be losing weight, tail still nice and fat etc., so try putting in dried mealies... also make sure you leave some calcium dust in the viv for them to lick whenever they want any....
Yours may just be settling in, my other female did not eat for over 8 days, but my male ate on the second day....
Hope it goes ok... J |

| Well sayin that like 3days ago i found poop in the tank and impresuming if they dont eat they dont poop, so he must ofate 1 or 2 but apart from that.. i just tried him with a mealworm and he didnt take it. he was watching them and gettin ready to bounce but didnt do it.. im just paranoid but the guy in the reptile shop told me they can take upto a week before they get settled in.. |
