Is she pooping (look around, sometimes they hide it)? Have you removed the moss? Is she getting supplementation?

Got the moss out. Don’t think she pooped before that. Hasn’t pooped since. I tore down the tank and put her on paper towel to prevent ingesting anything undesirable. And there was calcium in tank admittedly didn’t dust the crickets every time.

The crickets don't need to be dusted every time. Also it's important that the calcium have vitamin D3 in it. I don't leave calcium in the enclosure (they can end up getting too much calcium). I use Repashy Calcium plus which is an all-in-one supplement (calcium, D3, vitamins) and dust my feeders every other feeding.

I don't recommend dusting a leo's feeders at every feeding either. I also don't leave pure calcium carbonate or any other supplement in the enclosure.
May I ask how old your leo is? Which supplements are you using?Last edited by Elizabeth Freer; 11-27-2020 at 01:20 PM.
