Greg's acting weird! She's ready to shed but she's not eating many crickets in her tank she's a bit cold I'm making her move around right now but I pet her tail when she was in her rock and she didn't move so I got worried and pulled her out I put her back in her tank for a bit she ate one cricket and kept walking with her stomach on the ground and curling up in the corner this is not normal behavior for her, I looked in and kept petting her and she finally got off her stomach and moved her tail I noticed she was out of water so I gave her new water she hasn't pooped or she could have hid it from me she's he keeps trying to crawl on my cat right now he's noticed her but he isn't doing anything I'm gonna kick him out is it because she's shedding? I'm really worried!!!!

UPDATE! I just wet her moss in her rock! And she got in her rock!

I recommend leaving her alone till she's done shedding.

Leopard geckos don't produce their own body heat like mammals do, so it's normal for their bodies to be cold when they're not on their heat pads. Leopard geckos often act a little weird when they're getting ready to shed, just leave her alone for now.

Ok thank you she finished shedding and she seems better

Glad to hear she is better. They do get out of sorts during shedding. Some never change their moods, while others can be quite dramatic. As always, it is important to always have a moist hide in their cages.

I agree, I'm glad she's better also!

Glad to hear she's doing better. Guess it was just the shed, ay? Geckos can get pretty grumpy while they're shedding. Best to just make sure their humidity and temps are right and let them go through the process.

Yes adding more heat to the tank will help speed up the digestive system hope she gets well soon!

She's been eating and pooping well and she seems fine ^^ her toes have been getting shed skin on it again so I keep having to soak her and pull it off her toes she's very good about it but she gets mad at me when it won't come off and I keep picking at it
