My little leo girl that i saved from ***** has not eaten since last friday. this morning when i woke up i said goodmorning as usual and noticed she was turnning white (shedding soon). do you think she hasnt eaten because she is about to shed? I dont know if this is normal but the leos i have had before have always eaten before a shed...in fact some even during ( they obviously need a snack:D) what do you think?

It really does depend on the gecko. In my experience, even my porkers will slow down their eating habits leading up to a shed :) Just keep an eye on her...I know how sick geckos from that chain can be. I recently rescued one myself (in a state of weakness). When I brought him home he chowed down on a bunch of food, like he hadn't eaten for weeks, then didn't eat for about 3 days (scared me). Then he shed, and is back to eating like a little hog :main_yes:
