my female leo is really starting to worry me as she hasnt eaten for about a month and half now despite been offered crickets,pinkies,mealies and waxies which she turned down to my suprise.

She has lost an awful lot of weight from her body and her tail.

she was eating perfectly but then suddenly stopped and this was when the problems started. i have taken her out of her larger enclosure and placed her in a smaller one with papertowel for a substrate (was repticarpet in her large tank) she has always had fresh water and a calcium dish and her food has always been dusted properly whilst she was eating. temperatures are spot on.

i am totally baffled as to why she isnt eating.
she shed her skin last night with no problems but didnt eat alot of the shed..

can ayone shed some light on my problem please?

My vet said this is the time they are really s'pose to be chowing down. How much weight has she lost? Possible pregnancy? could she have eaten anything (has she had any bowel movements) what type of substrate was she on? Have you checked on a fecal for parasites? Is she acting odd?
