My beloved Henry has been with me for a little over two weeks now, and in that time he's grown immensely. He's perpetually shedding; yesterday he "lost" this big chunk of skin from his neck and belly. He has entirely new patterns and colors on his head, plus white patches under each eye and what seems to be added ring-shapes on the legs.
He's also extremely affectionate; now when I put my hand in the tank he immediately runs up to it, for cuddles. He seems more awake and energetic than he was when I first got him. For example, he stares at me and follows me with his head, and even goes "tss," "tss" when I make noise. He loves to take baths, and as always his favorite perch is my boob.
Thing is, he barely eats! He'll eat maybe 2-3 crickets a day, tops, and maybe some apple slices. He absolutely refuses to eat veggies, so I've been spraying his food with a vitamin supplement. I give him food two times a day, and always leave plenty of crickets and fruit slices in there. He will ignore most of it, though.
I'm kind of worried about his lack of eating... but at the same time, he poops and grows constantly! What do you think?
Here are some before and after pics!

Henry, two weeks later (note that head, face, and back have totally changed):
He looks pretty healthy to me. It's a good sign that he is energetic. The shedding may be causing him to lose appetite but he will need something eventually. I'd try offering some variety. Try offering him some Phoenix Worms and see if he likes those. If you can provide details and photos of your setup and lighting too I'll be glad to go through it and see if anything stands out as a possible problem.
