Well I have two thoughts. First of course is what temp do you have the little guys at? Secondly were they recently treated with a dewormer of some sort. Sometimes after deworming the beneficial flora inside the intestinal track take a beating. Finally try slightly smaller prey items.
there temps are fine. they just got there last drop this week of dewormer. i was going to try some smaller prey. this one took it the hardest from the worms he was the sickest.
85-75 at night 90-77 during the day i use a ir thermometer and thermostat. thanks for the advice hopefully smaller will work! because he is or i mean she is goin after food like a normal gexo. thanks again
the day temps are 77F at the lowest??

yeah my temps are good i've read the leopard gecko manual and bought my setups from Brian Viets. which i just now put two and two together and realized who he was lol. all my babys hang out on the warm side right on top of my UTH(which is on a thermostat so they don't get burned). if they start to hang out on the cool side tons more then i would think about turning the UTH down but as of now they like it.
