try crickets,I always start my babies on the smallest that I can find in the stores...(not an issue now,since the gf breeds bugs )... never had a problem with babies refusing crickets.

How are his temps? Have you tried crickets or roaches?

If you just got him on the 11th, he's probably still super stressed about the move. It sometimes takes a few days for a Leo to eat after going through a move. I wouldnt stress about it yet, but definitely try crickets or phoenix worms or roaches in the meantime. :)

I second what @Laurah has said. Give him some time to settle in. Definitely try crickets. I find they're a bit of a hassle but they're really good at stimulating the appetite!
