While we're all talking today, I'd like to ask a question for your input. I've been in reptiles for over 15 years but am new to leopard geckos. I have a nice colony of about 50 or so and I have recently noticed a slow down in their eating. I offer mealworms each day Sunday through Thursday. On Fridays I offer dusted crickets and I don't feed them anything on Saturday.
It seems they have all slowed down on their eating but a few in particular have about stopped. I have a big $600 male from Albey's I was intending to use as my stud horse for my Tang project and he's suffering the most...really losing weight. I really don't want to lose him. There are a few others starting to show signs of it as well. I have tried waxworms and pinkie mice to no avail. I think he is eating a few mealworms here and there because I did get some droppings from him Saturday which I took to the vet to test, but he's not eating like he should. I keep them in sweater boxes, one gecko per box. So it is not overcrowding. I do not use belly heat, I have a hot room. I keep it 85-90 degrees in the day and drop to about 70 at night. I have not changed anything in the heating or lighting. Does anyone have any ideas both about the problem and the solution? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. --Stacy ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!
