Alright guys,

Leo hasn't eaten in about a week.

Last time i scooped his poop up was yesterday morning and it looked healthy.

I've done abit of research and i've quadrupled checked that my temperatures are all within the guidelines.

I've just left him a dish of 10 mealworms out tonight, i usually just watch him eat crickets/locusts/mealies but he genuinely doesn't seem interested - all he does is turn his head away or close his eyes!

Behavior wise - he's a relatively young gecko (7 months) and he's a little skittish but massively growing in confidence every day, i'm not home that much but this past 3 weeks that i have been he has started to get used to me (climbing onto my hand willingly etc)

I have watched him hunt down locusts/crickets in the past so i dont think he is "shy" as such.

The only real cause i can see at the moment would be Brumation? but i'm still a beginner myself so i don't really know what to expect. Just looking for a second opinion really!

Thanks

Nice one thankyou!

I got a little worried so popped him back in his old (smaller) vivarium where the temps are a little higher and he's started eating again!
