The breeder replied via e-mail and told me the following: "He had just eaten mealies before I shipped.Try him on regular size mealworms.He also got done shedding and a busy breeding season. He just needs to be fattened up again and cooled down from breeding so much. Wax worms work well too. " Does a male leo lose all of his body fat by breeding in a "Busy breeding season"? This poor fella is skin and bones. His tail is no bigger than a pencil at the widest point and I can count every rib and his backbone is sticking out. He is supposed to be 1.5 years old. (the breeder "says") Lorie Oh, he loves the humid hide box and he lunged at a cricket and drank lots of water. I think he is strong, and I am getting very attached already.
