Crested not eating? help please

Hello friends. I posted recently about my new crested gecko that I got. She is about a year old, her temps are 70-75, misted twice daily. I have had her almost a month. I have 2 different flavors of crested gecko diet for her and I am just not seeing her eat. Ive tried mixing it thicker and thinner and in the morning I dont see where she has eaten any of it. If have tried making it fresh every night and leaving it in for a couple nights too. If I put it on her nose she will lick it off, but she won't lick it freely from my fingers like she did on the day I got her. I read you could put a tiny drop of honey in the mixs to amp up the sweetness and smell, so I did that last night, but you could still tell she hadn't licked any up. Could she be stressed or could something else be wrong? I do find poop in the cage, but not in several days. I love this little girl and I am worried about her. Please let me know any input you have.

Roughly how big is she? The only geckos I have that clean their bowls are my 40g+ females. Some of my little ones looks like they don't eat at all. You might also be stressing her out by over fussing about her.

You could also offer her some crickets to mix things up a bit or make a smoothie with some fresh overly ripe fruit.

I have not weighed her, but I will when I get home. That way I can keep an eye on her. I have offered crickets and she shows no interest. I thought about trying Pangea Fruit Mix or mashing her up some banana or something.

I haven't tried the fruit mix yet but I was planning on getting some for mine as a treat. I have heard great things about it. :)

Just be care feeding it because it is just a little better than baby food and was intended to be fed with dusted crickets.

Well theres several things that could be attributing to her not eating. First off being that its winter and cresteds will eat less, this is due to light cycles, lower humidity, and lower temps. Stress is another thing, if you are continually handling her or switching up her tank she will tend to eat less. I would get a gram weight on her and post it here, if you could provide us with a picture as well that would help me establish her overall size.

She is 35g.

How long have you had her? Sometimes it takes a few weeks for them to get used to their new home. She might just be stressed. Do you have a picture of her?

well best way to tell if she is eating is check the tub for poop if its a vivarium or substrate that is dirt then you'll wanna check your room temps and humidity. If that is well try to give her crickets the size of the distance between her eyes and dust them with calcium and vitamins and let the rephashy be in there if she eats them she is eating and the crickets will eat some rephasy and she'll get it too.

What worries me is that her food is in a tiny shallow 0.5 oz cups and I just fill it so it covers the bottom. I would think I would see if she were eating anything. She has no interest in crickets either.
