Help with a new LG

[AJ211]

Last week I got a one and a half year old female LG. She hasn't eatin anything since I got her,I've tried Phoenix worms, butter worms,roaches,etc. but nothing worked. The worms are all dying and turning into flies. Any tips would be helpful. Thank you in advance

What are the temps in the cage (floor, not air)? Also, it's not uncommon for adult geckos to take longer to settle in to a new home. I've had some not eat for a month. The winter is always the hardest time, too, besides ovulation time. Did you ask what she was being fed before?

I haven't thought to check the temperature of the floor,what should the temperature of the floor be? How would I check the temperature. I have a green ecocarpet, but I haven't seen a problem with it because she does does walk on it. I have asked what she was being fed before I got her and I have been consistent with there food pattern. How long do you think she could go without eating?

If floor temps are good, they might be being picky about food. You could try a small batch of crickets and see if those interest them more, dubia roaches are really good too and don't jump when it's time to feed them.

She might be adjusting still too. Keep trying, she'll come around eventually

You can check the floor surface temperatures best with a temp gun. There should be a warm spot around 88-90 F. If you can't get a temp gun, you could also try to find a digital temperature monitor that has a probe cable and stick the end of the cable to the floor to measure the temperature.
