Gecko's appetite is off

[Kosse]

Our gecko who has been eating between 15-20 small (.5"-.75") mealworms a day has slowed down to only about 10 or so a day. She has already molted once in early October and she did the same thing before that molt.

I was think she was getting ready to molt again so i have been keeping an eye on her. I found a couple small pieces of skin in her cage a few days ago and figured she had eaten the rest of it but her appitite has not picked back up. She is eating and having a normal BM daily just not eating like she used to.

Is this something I need to be concerned with or am I being overly concerned? What else should I look for to make sure there is not a problem.

I know this has probably been asked a billion times in the past in one form or another and I apologize. I guess what I'm looking for is other symptoms and signs of illness.

She does not really seem sluggish or anything.
Coloring is good.
BM is normal
Just low appetite. Maybe time for something new to eat?

Not to worry, this is normal.

Each animal tends to be different. Some never loose appitite through the
whole shedding process, and others will not eat for days.

Also, depending on where you live, leos slow down their eating in the winter.

As long as he/she is pooping normal, and is not loosing weight (tail getting thin) you have nothing to worry about.

My leos are going through their "winter feeding cycle" now, so I never know
if they are going to want their dinner or not!

Thanks for the reply. I'll just keep an eye on here like I have been and if I see any changes I'll come back here
