I just looked at the last thread and it hasn't been that long since she ate. Force feeding is a very stressful procedure and should be avoided unless absolutely necessary.

When I had to hand feed my sick geckos last year, I was giving them bananas (the one loved it since it was sweet.) and I also did turkey and chicken.

Your best bet is the gecko soup. It's kind of gross to make, but it does wonders! My girl Sobe stopped eatting due to a bad eye infection, and I supplemented her with that. She took it really well, and it has everything they need. Calcium, vitamins, & protein. And whatever you don't use right away you can freeze and keep it for later.

I agree totally. I know you're worried about her not eating, but even something as simple dripping baby food on her nose may stress her out. Best to maybe up the temps on her hot side if you have not done so already. I keep my geckos at 95-97 degrees and they're all eating quite well.

And please give us more than a half hour to answer your thread before you start getting upset that we're not answering.
