well my leo hasnt eaten for about almost 3 weeks and im taking her to the vet next week. but she hasnt eaten and she is still going poo. it looks like a kind of flaky yellow/white poo. does any one know anything about this? her tail is still fat but her color is getting darker. she used to be a high yellow but now shes like turning a greenish color.

Hi

You said that she has flakie poo. That could mean that she is a little dehydrated. Even though you are keeping a water bowl full in her tank, she may not be drinking enough on her own. If you can get a good look at her tongue, it should be nice and pink, but if it is white she is definitely dehydrated.

Also make sure that the basking end of her tank is warm enough for her.

You had said that you are going to be taking her to the vet. witch is good and that will give you your answers about any possible parasites she may or may not have.

Take Care, TLB
