ok i've posted on here about my female not eating well she eats alittle now. but my male has just stopped eatting tonght normaly he would eat about 20 mealworms a night and tonite he just didnt want them. and he is too lazy and wont got for the circketsbecause hes in a large tank 30l,13h,13w and im trying to get fecals done on both my male and female but my mom says she doesnt have the money. and the temp is rite 84-90. thanks in advance.

Your male may just be taking a break from eating. If YOU ate 20 hot dogs a night, you would want to take a break too.

If hes a good weight, temps are right and he normally does eat, dont stress over it. My female does this. She stuffs herself for a while until she really packs on the pounds and then eats almost nothing for a month. It seems to be normal behaviour alot of the time for leos to just stop eating for a week or more every once in a while. But also remember that 90% of the time people say they're animals wont eat, its temps, so double checko those too.
Good luck

Gabe the gecko is fed every other day and she eats 5 - 10 large mealworms or 8 - 12 medium crickits and every week to every other week she gets a pinky. If I try to feed her inbetween she usually won't eat.

ok thanks for your replys i was just a littlle worried because he normally always eats hes a pig. but he is a good weight and he has a nice fat tail.
