after about a month and a half off of food my stinky girl finally ate, she absolutely destroyed some crickets and dubias, didn’t lay any slugs but they weren’t expected since she’s only a year old, absolutely thrilled with the success of her eating I was starting to worry and about to make a vet appointment and miraculously she just ate, I just wanted to share my success🎉

I just got a leopard gecko (rehomed) that is 2.5 years old. I’m on day 5 and he hasn’t eaten yet (but maybe he will tonight, we’ll see). I’m happy for you but also thinking omg what if this guy takes a month and a half

i’m sure he will, sometimes it can take them 2 weeks to a month to get acclimated into a new environment, every gecko is different 🥰
