Leo seems lazy eating food and has a fat tail, should I be worried?

[killerb4dger]

Hiya,

My Leo Mia used to be very active catching her food, now she seems to be lazy. Only when I hand feed her and even then looks like it's a half asked leap to grab the food. Sometimes needing a second attempt.

She also seems to have a fat tail, I know it's for food stores but she is being feed every day. 1-2 locusts daily and I leave 1 in there for her to find (which she doesn't)

Should I be worried or stave her for few days? Not sure what to do

Thanks

Andy

could you fill in the sticky thread on your setup and possibly post a picture?

try feeding crickets or silkworms. Changing up the food can help get your leo to eat. Some reptiles become bored with their food and like variety!

If she has a real fat tail and she is getting lazy about catching food she is probably being fed too often. Once full grown and fat they don't eat nearly as much. I would not feed more than 2 or 3 times a week.
