Its only been two days since giving birth, but my new mother Leo isnt eating. She's thin, but not too thin, her tail is still pretty fat, but i'm concerned. What is normal behavior ofter laying a first clutch?

Usually, they are ravenous after laying a clutch. Is she still in with the male, or other geckos? She may be stressed, and needs some time to herself. I would offer her a variety of foods to get the feeding response going again, and if she hasn't eaten in 5 days you may want to try her on the GGG Slurry so she can get some nutrition.
