Help!

hi. I didnt know where else to post this, so im sorry if its in the wrong place.
I have a 7 month old gecko, who has never had trouble with feeding, suddenly starting to eat drastically less. She hasnt had any thing to eat for two weeks and seems uninterested in food. temperature and food are all ideal. Gecko seems healthy but...i cant get her to eat ..how serious is this and what can i do? if you need further information to help please ask.

Is she ovulating? You can usually see a pink spot in the center of the belly if she is.

No, everything seems normal except she hasnt been eating normally since the middle of january and almost stopped completley the last two weeks

how old is she, how large is she (weight in grams ideally) and how often do you feed her?

Shes about 8-9 months old ive been feeding her 3-4 mealworms everyday since i got her untill couple mothes ago when i started feeding her like 8-12 every day she went like that for a while and ..half way through january slowed down to like a couple a week, and now she hasnt eaten anything in two weeks, shes not skinny by anymeans and shes pretty active, but shes stopped eating. even her tail is pretty fat.

Aliza- from what i can tell shes about the same as the one in your picture size wise.

She's the right size to slow down to eating every 2-3 days, or to take a break of several weeks. She's the right age and it's the right time of year for her to be ovulating and I hate to tell you how long some of my girls didn't eat when they ovulated for the first time. Just offer food every few days, try not to worry,and don't worry unless she starts losing lots of weight fast.
