[gecko geek]

I have had my leo for a week and she hasent eaten in the past 5 days and I swiched her form crickets to mealworms and she isnt eating anthing what should I do? I am very worried.:help:

Let her relax in her new home and get comfy. She will eat when she feels safe. They take awhile to begin eating.

:help: she will go up to the mealies and look like she is goin to "pounce" on it and she just licks it and walks away

We are in the same position with ours. Although he must be eating the mealworms as they are going somewhere ! But he is not interested in the crickets or locusts .I am not sure why they gave us locusts as they are huge and Lenny is small at the mo and couldn't catch them anyway ! Will he be ok on just mealworms ?

Mealworms are just fine. Just make sure that you're supplementing with calcium and vitamins regardless of the food source. We have a few that only eat mealworms and they're just as healthy as the ones who eat both mealworms and crickets.

Mine are doing this too, what did you do to get the leo to eat the mealworms?

Just leave a BIG bowl of plump worms in a bowl. He will eat when he is hungry.
