How old is your Leo?
he was small when i got him, so less than a year old.

Also, we would need to have some information on your setup such as:
* What are you using as the substrate (floor covering)?
paper towels

* Approximately when was the last time he pooped?
less than a week i believe, but maybe 5 days

* What are the substrate temps on the warm side, cool side temps?
don't know exact temp, the room temp is usually 75ish, the warm side has an under tank heater

* How many hides do you have in the enclosure?
2 hides, one on the cool side, and a humid hide on the warm side

* Do you have a humid hide?
yes

* What are you feeding your Leo?
mealworms

* Do you supplement your Leo with calcium & vitamins?
have a small dish of calcium (cuttle bone powder) and have supplements his food gets shaken in before feeding

* Does your Leo appear normal other than not eating?
yes, he looks ok, but just isn't eating

Here's a pic of his cage:
