Also, what is she?
The person I got her from says she's about 2 y/o but I have no idea if there's even a way to check age on a Leo..
I know that Leo's typically stop eating (as much) when they're ovulating, but is it normal for them to get skinny?
Should I tell her that most guys like their girls with a little weight on them?
I got this Leopard Gecko from a local reptile store. I noticed she was just slightly underweight so I didn't really mind.
I brought her home and put her in my 55g breeder that has 4 other Leo's in it. They have a red heat lamp, a heat pad, food at all time with calcium everywhere. (On food and in a separate bowl,) Three different water bowls a huge hide with many holes, a plant right under the heat lamp for shade and a big moist hide with Sphagnum Moss.
She has shed once since she's been here and I've had her for 3 weeks.
She's losing weight. She looks obviously underweight now.
I took her out of there and put her in a separate 10g with a heating pad. It appears she ate 1 meal worm.. But only one. And when I put a worm in front of her face she just goes to sleep no matter how much I pester her about it.
I also think one of her toes is broken.
TL;DR, I take pretty good care of my Geckos but one isn't eating. I separated it, still not eating. Also, has broken toe(?)
Halp please.
