Baby not eating/ but has fed.

[maximusx6910]

I bought a baby a week ago, and right when it got home, it gobbled down 4 mealworms and the next couple of days poop was showing up at a new place (the baby). Now, it doesnt seem like it has been eating any. As with it being a baby, i dont want it going too long w/ out eating. It has been drinking though. Ill be looking for poop tomorrow morning as for signs. I have been offering food for it, but isnt interested. and i keep a mealies dish out 24/7. Any ideas? or advice? The baby i would consider it rehabilitating. B/c the shape it was in when i got it was pitiful. But it is active and very alert. but like i said any comments, advice, suggestions would be wonderful.

It isn't too abnormal for it not to eat right away since you just got it. I'm actually surprised it ate right when you got him.

Keep offering the food and if he still refuses, you can feed him slurry, which is what I had to do with my little guy.
