    4MONTHS w/ No Food... is this some cruel joke???
    So.. i didnt record the exact date but sometime at the end of august Nirvana stopped eating completely. I was feeding regularly superworms, mealworms, and crickets switching at random when she decided it was time to watch her figure. Well over the weeks i tried everything (I) thought possible, from adjusting temps, to changing food types, times, methods, and locations of feeding. I took her to several different vets who gave me answers or suggestions i could have looked up myself. Although one vet offered a 180.00 x-ray to determine if it was constipation, i sadly had to decline the offer on the basis of my current budget at the time and the fact that she was still "doing her business" on the regurlar and in the same place as always.

    So after all the prayers, vets, Google searches, giving-up and retrying again, Nirvana finally gained back her appetite one week ago and one week after her first birthday to my relief and serious surprise. And she has been eating like she never missed a day every since....
    Any comments welcome:D

    She is GORGEOUS! is she some sort of bold stripe?
    Glad to see your post has a happy ending!
    That is odd for her to fast like she did...I wonder if anyone has had this problem with leos before? I know I never have.

    One of my girls hasn't eaten for a while now, they have all done this from time to time. It drives me insane when they do but I've learned to live with it. I have no idea what posses them to do it and they do snap out of it when they are ready.
    I also now have two that think it's OK to lay eggs for no particular reason. Clemmy has been doing it for a few years now and 3 just started a few weeks ago. She is digging again so is ready to lay her second infertile clutch.
    Silly geckos!
    I love them to death but they really can drive you insane.
