My male leo who’s a little over a year old has been having some problems lately. He never had any shedding problems before, but the last two times that he’s shed he’s dropped the skin all over his enclosure and had trouble getting it off. Also, he hasn’t been eating anything. I’ve been feeding him dubias for about 6 months, but now he won’t eat them anymore. I can get him to eat one if i hold it in front of him but he’ll turn his nose away from the second. Any ideas what could be wrong? Humidity and temperature are the same as always and nothing has happened that would stress him out. Maybe just needing a diet change?

It's certainly worthwhile trying a different feeder in case he's bored. I have also found that geckos can have more or fewer problems shedding from time to time and that they also sometimes don't eat much for a lot longer than I had expected. Try a few different feeders and don't worry about the shedding.
