When you first bring a new leo home you have to let it settle in for a bit. No touching, ect. Usually it'll take a week for them to get comfortable with their new surroundings and then they'll start eating.

--All this is for a healthy leo.

I agree they have to settle in, also winter is the time geckos usually go off feed for a while so don't panic.

Like they said, she's probably settling in. My gecko didn't eat for the first 3 days, but I've heard some that take over a week to eat. Just make her comfortable and she'll eat soon. :D

Don't panic! I just recently bought my leo as well. It took a few days for him to settle in, and he didn't do much other than sit about in his hide. I left about three crickets in, which he ate on his own time. Give her some time to get comfortable with her new surroundings, and she should be right as rain!
