Well, I have a juvi leo. She is about 4 months old, and has seemed to be very healty. She eats normally, and I gut-load the crickets, and dust them.Her temps. in the cage are always good... When went to hold her this morning, she seemed fine. And, just now when I got home I went to go see her, and she is acting weird. It seems as though she isn't able to become comfortable, and is shaking a bit and walking in circles. She never done this before... I am worried, and I cannot find a vet open on Sundays... can someone please give me their advice... or opinion or anything.. I am really worried I don't want to have anything happen to my baby...

I'm not sure what this is, behavioural anolamies are not really a good way to diagnose leos. So many of them have just wacky quirks anyway. But do rest assured, if it is not a true emergency, (and even if it is), in Herp world, an overnight wait for a vet visit is not a problem. Unless she has some sort of major toxicity, which is doubtful, she should make it through the night OK. And congrats to you on being so observant and ready and willing o get your leo the care she deserves!
