Default Dobby not eating : - ( - 14-02-2008, 05:25 PM

Hi,
I got my leo (male) on Saturday with another leo which we were told was a female. On Monday we found out they were both males so we took one back to the shop.
He ate about five mealworms on Monday but has not eaten anything since. I am starting to get a little worried as he has not been as active since losing the other gecko.
I think the setup I have is all sound just as the caresheets say. Any advice would be great. He is about nine months old.

Thanx

If they were both from the same litter then yes he could be just like a puppy or kitten and miss the other but he should come around, you can also try feeding him crickets. I have one that won't eat nothing but crickets and one that only eats meai worms. Just remember to dust them with vits and have some calcium in the tank.

Thanks so much for the reply, He has actually eaten about six mealworms overnight. Thank goodness. Hopefully he will settle in now!
Its great to be able to ask all these questions, I now they have been asked before but it has certainly put my mind at ease.
