My female leopard gecko has decided to not eat this week this is the only time she’s decided to do it. Although she haven’t been eating she’s still retaining her body weight at 62 grams. I also think she’s ovulating if so that could also be the reason. Correct me if I’m wrong.

In my experience, sometimes they go on brief (or not so brief) hunger strikes. Unless other things start looking problematic, I'd say don't worry, just keep offering food.

When a gecko reaches it s weight limit they tend to have a decreased appetite just like they do in winter, the most important thing is that the tail stays fat. But if the tail starts to decrease in fat and becomes too skinny there is a problem and you must take the gecko to a vet and check it s stool for parasites
