I think maybe he may show sign of shedding. He ate crickets last 4 days ago. He refused. Why? His Tank is in good warm. like 82 and 90. I kept his light on for few mins and an hour. He have been doing fine like he runs and he is more active and respond to me but refused to eat. :(

Sometimes geckos will take a brake when they come in to shed, Afterward they should pick back up when feeding, However its always best to try a few feeders like mealworms,crickets,wax worms,roaches, and even super worms. Wax worms work great for Geckos that don't eat! but it should always be used as a treat. Good luck! remember try a mix of feeders and don't always stick to the same thing.

He eats Crickets and Mealworms. But I May not feed to him mealworms anymore. because it makes his Disgest more hard. He pooped long time. he eats crickets and poop all time. But I have Seen he poops but refused to eat. :( Shedding? Really? It happened to him too. But i dont know why. -__-
