Some tips and tricks for a baby crested gecko not wanting to eat would be greatly appreciated.
This is my girlfriends baby crestie, I do have snakes so it is not our first reptile.
1 Husbandry is in order , we have a temp gradient of 75 degrees to 81 degrees F. Humidity is on 75%
2 He is a baby crested gecko of 4 months old and weighs 2 grams exactly. (M or F we do not know.)
3 We take note of poop on a white paper towels, but there is no poop and there has been none for 3 days now. ( we can see food is definitely untouched.)
4 He/she has only been with us for 3 days now. Research was done well although the pet shop we got it from was not all that helpful, so asking advice from them will do no good.
5 The enclosure is not too big and he can find his food easily. It prefers not going down all that much and when it does go down its not for long, still the food remains untouched.
6 Girlfriend is sad and worried. :coverlaugh::shock:
Is it that he is just stressed out and needs more time settling in ? Any and all advice is appreciated.
