Hi. I have had my leopard gecko for a year. Not sure of the sex. It has always been healthy. Loves to be held, very sweet. Then 3 months ago she stopped eating. I have tried everything, cricket, wax worms, different sizes of meal worms. I have tried hand feeding over and over and no luck. She has still pooped, just mostly white, instead of half and half. Now it's gotten slimy and its like I can see her pulse in her neck all the time. I know they can hibernate but this is nuts. We love her and want her healthy. Is this normal???

She still looks pretty healthy from the picture. If she's ovulating, she probably won't eat for awhile and it will be reflected in her droppings. I have a number of females on hunger strikes. If her tail isn't getting significantly thinner, she's probably fine. You could always take her to a vet to be sure.
