Losing weight............... Help

jag Aug 11, 2003 11:26 AM

Well all my leos have been seperated from eachother and well My male has stopped eating for about 5 days now. He has lost a little weight 1.5 grams... Is that a lot? I heard that there are times that leos will stop eating "Hunger Strike" but I have offered him everything and he wont touch nothing. Is it because he knows that there is a female in the room. If I offer him turkey baby food he will eat it and his stool loos normal, just a little softer cuz of the food. Is this normal?

try feeding him wax worms or pinkie mice. they are both very high in fat and your leo should love them
