your not necessarily doing anything wrong. Naturally geckos have to go off feeding for a while sometimes, and while it is not necessary in captivity sometimes it happens. They can easily go for a month or 2 without eating. Also ive noticed geckos about to lay eggs will sometimes go off feed right before, even if they are infertiles. I wouldnt worry about it at this point, just keep an eye on the way she acts and her weight. Make sure she has access to some calcium. If you notice any strange behavior or weightloss let us know. You may have to start force feeding her if she wont start eating again, it is really easy.
