Gecko Help

[g man]

hey everyone i got a new gecko 2 weeks ago and she has only eaten 2 crix that i know of. But she seems to weigh just as much as she did when i got her. Is this wierd?

It could be a number of things but most likely nothing to worry about..

What are the temps? Do you use a UTH? Substrate? Have you tried another type of food mealworms? supers?

Have you taken it to the vet or had a fecal done?

Is your Gecko housed alone?

yes my gecko is housed alone with a UTH. Ive tried feeding her mealworms and crix. She is being housed on paper towels

Well, as you may have seen on other posts, leos have gone longer than 2 weeks having less than 2 crickets and turned out to be perfectly fine. As long as what everyone above said is fine, I would just keep trying. You can try some other food options or the slurry too.
