I bought my 2 month old Leo Gecko a month ago and in that time its only eaten one thing, a waxworm and it just wont eat anything else.

The temps are fine, it has a moist box which it seem to spend a lot of time in, and 2 caves to hide in.

I have tried crickets, lockusts, waxworms and mealworms and it is just not interested, i have even gently put a waxworm and mealworm in front of its nose but it just turns its head away.

It is getting thinner and thinner and sleeps most of the time and cannot get it to ear. I would have thought it would have settled in by now and if it was starving it would eat but no responce.

It has not poo'd for many weeks so know its not eating.

any advice on how i can get it to eat?

can we get more info on your setup? It will help us to understand what is going on. There is a sticky on the forum page with a form to fill out about your gecko and set up. There is also a sticky about a slurry recipe that you can try to help the gecko get some nutrients in him/her.
