Blizzard and Jungle

Sypha Jun 07, 2004 01:10 PM

My recent additions, a juvi jungle and blizzard have been neglecting to eat for a week or so now. I figured it might've been because of my moving them from one cage to another after about a month's wait. But, I'm not sure if that is the problem anymore. I seperated them to see if they were intimidating each other. But, that doesn't seem to help. I've tried feeding them mealworms, which they ate originally, but they ignore them. Then, I moved to crickets, but they ignored them. I am not concerned yet about them losing weight as they are still kinda plump in the tail. But, they seriously need to eat. Any suggestions?

It should be 88-90 on the floor of the warm side of the tank. Incorrect temperatures can affect your leos' appetites since they need proper temps to digest their food.
