The Tangerine is a juvie, so her tail size is okay with with me and she is eating like a champ, the albino is new to my collection and I will try to get her booty nice and round the best I can, she ate for me tonite (the first night I own her) and I guess I will get her going.

And I will stick to sand because a) I never heard that the desert in Pakistan has a paper towel floor () and b) I feed these ladies by forceps, so I doubt they will digest sand (there is a calcium bowl in the cage anyway).
If my leo group grows to the point that hand feeding is no more practical I will change the bedding, but till then I wont.
But thanks for your concerns!
