Bloated leo

[Jess1723]

Hey guys I am new to this so I am not sure how to really go about asking questions on here. I have a male leopard gecko who is about 5 months old. Recently he has been stuffing his face and growing rapidly lol The last two days he hasn't eaten and his stomach looks bloated. He isn't acting lethargic and I don't think he is impacted because he pooped but his belly looks really fat. I am soaking him in a bath as I am writing this. Is this okay? He might have just eaten too much is what I'm thinking. I feed meal worms and crickets but he has taken a liking to meal worms and eats A LOT in one feeding. Please give me some feed back! Thank you

Assuming that your husbandry is perfect, he is probably stuffed from all the feeding before, sometimes they will stop eating for a few days, to lose excess weight etc. I would lower how many crickets/meal worms you give him. Make sure that your gecko is eating again after two to three days.You should only give as much as your gecko can eat in 15 minutes. (If leo still has interest in food, or has trouble catching it, you can leave it in for a few more minutes.)
