So my leo Eko is about 9-10 months old, i got her as a little baby last june, and she ate mealworms, canned crickets and other canned insects her whole life, and about 2 months ago i switched her to superworms and she would eat them happily. Now, shes been acting really weirdly, she runs out of whichever hide shes in when she sees my hand and tries to get on it, and she always climbs the glass or anything she finds to get higher, shes in a 20 gallon long so i dont know why space would be an issue, her temps on the warm side are about 90-93, she has 24/7 access to fresh water, and a big moist hide, warm hide, and cool hide. someone told me that she might be trying to lay eggs, but when she was climbing the glass, i looked at her belly and saw nothing, no eggs. also, she has not eaten in about 2 weeks, i tried giving her superworms, crickets, mealworms, and even silkworms but she just ignores everything and follows my hand. What could be the problem? Also, incase size is an issue, im in the process of finishing my project of building a terrarium from melamine, its 36 X 18 X 17 inches which is bigger than her 20 gallon, and i plan to be done by this weekend. Any suggestions?

Do a search on this. My gecko did this too. It's quite funny to watch lol but when I asked this question many ppl said its just a behaviour during ovulation and she never laid any eggs either. She actually took this one step further and tried to climb up the glass and climbed on things until she reached the top and climbed upside down across the wire top lol
