Hi,
We have a new addition, a gorgeous young leopard Gecko who hasn't eaten in 5 days. She's a vibrant yellow/orange and black yet woke up yesterday to her with a grey/white colour and assumed she was getting ready to shed. Woke up this morning to her being back to her original colour. Can anyone suggest why she may not be eating, she's been offered crickets and waxworms with a supplement over the last few days, we're getting a bit worried!
Cheers all
Pam

Couple ideas, if she is old enough some of my Leo girls slow down eating during the colder months. Also, she could possibly not be hungry. The only part that has me worried is you said waxworm. I haven't ever had a Leo turn down a juicy waxworm. Keep an eye on her weight and if she loses more than 10-15% of her oft weight I would take her to a vet.

If by new addition, you mean you just got her 5 days ago, she's probably still settling in. Also, I know some of mine go off food around a shed. Not sure I'd start worrying yet. :)
