SInce its been that long, and she has not lost weight-- I would say that she is eating, perhaps at night. As Leos mature, their feeding frequency slows down-- for example they may eat 10-15 mealworms on one day, but not eat again for several more days, whereas a younger leo will eat everyday, but fewer crickets/mealworms. However, the lack of interest crickets could be an issue. At this point, I would contact a vet to make arrangements to have a stool sample checked. Parasites will show in the sample and can be treated properly--- Let me know how you make out and Good luck
