So now I finally really start to worry, as my boy goes on about two, two and a half weeks of not eating. I've been on a week of Reptaid now, as well as some Critical Care to keep him from deteriorating (Although I have been offering, and putting off the CC each day to see if he'll eat on his own, but he'll go as far as to shut his eyes and turn away from any offerings of greens, pheonix worms, or crickets, all of which he used to happily eat) but the fact of the matter remains, he won't eat ANYTHING aside from Waxworms, which I can't offer many of, and have only been offering as a means to hide his medicine (I don't feel comfortable using reptaids suggestion of dosing him with a few drips from the needle, since... well, a needle by his mouth)
He already got a run of dewormers just about three weeks ago, as well as probiotics. He has his correct lighting, temps, substrate and the like, and besides not eating, he's acting perfectly normal, all of his usual high energy (He loves to climb about in his cage, and dig)
He just won't eat, and he's pretty unruly about the CC, but once he starts licking it, he doesn't want it on his face, so he keeps licking until I stop.
Shed-wise, he hasn't shed in awhile, and I catch him a few times rubbing his face on things like he wants to shed, however he's been doing that for weeks, and I've been giving him baths and using a soft bristled toothbrush to try to ease any shed, but nothing changes, and he hasn't started shedding or really doesn't seem to have any change in color as per usual before a shed, so that's odd too.
