Wont eat meal/super worms

[LittleFoot]

None of my adult leos eat their worms. One that i got was fed strictly just super worms prior to me getting her and now she wont touch them. I keep a few in a dish in each tank but they never get touched and started cocooning.

My adults also dont seem to eat much. none are loosing weight and still poop normal. Am i just feeding them too many crickets? The babies eat like crazy, and i just moved from beardies who ate anything within minutes lol

My adults eat about 20 mealworms a week or about 5 dubia roaches which is MUCH less than my babies eat. I weigh mine every week or two to make sure they are maintaining their weight and only worry if they lose more than 10% and are looking a bit underweight.

3 of mine are at great weight, one was a little on the small side when i got her but she seems to be gaining weight. im going to be getting a scale this week to keep better track.

I just dont know if im too used to my beardies who are pigs that i think they arent eating enough. but breeders told me as long as they look good and are pooping not to worry.

by any chance, where they newly purchased leos? they tend to lose appetite when moved to a new location.

What size Dubia? My leo (I assume she's an adult. Don't have an age or a scale) eats five Dubia in a single sitting, but they're medium Dubia, about 5/8" to 3/4" long.

i dont feed dubia, they are not available in my area.
I feed 4 or 5 week crickets, super worms, and giant meal worms.

Last year at around this time my leos decided to do a slowdown in the amount of food they'd eat and worried me because they ate very little. Maybe it has something to do with it being autumn? So far this year mine are still eating, but it's probably a lot colder where you are.
