My brothers gecko keeps trying to climb up the glass while mine which is in the same tank and is also new and an adult does not . My gecko is much more calm than my my brothers and tonight was their second night here so I tried feeding both of them again and my leo ate 7 mealworms but my brothers just licked them . Any tips to get her eating ??? I told him she was just more disturbed by the shipping . :main_huh:

When I got both my girls they did the same thing, one was super quiet and let me handle her, ate ell and everything and the other one was just nuts, I couldn't touch her, she was climbing the glass and wasen't eating as much. The breeder I got them from told me that it's normal for them not to eat for a whole week after moving them and they have very different personalities and some take things better than others. Don't handle them for a bit and let them settle in, they should be fine

You shouldn't be worrying since it's just the second day. Leos need time to adjust to their new surroundings. Some leos will eat right away while others will be finicky for months, but most will start calming down in a matter of days/weeks.

Just some stuff I'm curious about. Are both leos approx. the same size? What sex are they? Could their be any bullying/fighting going on? Leos that are housed together may not eat because they are being harassed/bullied or aren't comfortable with another leo around, just another suggestion as to why he/she is not eating.

Mine is 65 grams and my brothers is 60 grams so they are pretty close in size and they are both females . As for the bullying that's what I was thinking so I sat and watched them for an hour last night and they sat in the same hide together and licked each other and have been in the same hide together all morning .So I don't know .
