I feed Pepper the same time every day, the same thing, the same amount. And today she wasn't chasing crickets at all. She hasn't touched her salad. And all the phoenix worms i put in her bowl are still squirming around.

She seems to just want to gape under her basking light today with her eyes closed. The only recent difference was i changed her UVB bulb.

I use the Reptisun 10.0 florescent 18in tube.
Her basking temp is 100 degrees.
And she went potty this morning.

Should i be worried?

How old is she?

If this is just the first day that this is happening then I wouldn't be too worried. Maybe she is having an off day? Try to give her a soak and see if that gets her to eat. If not, just keep an eye on her the next couple of days :wink:

She's almost 5 months.
I'll try soaking her.. she hates baths though.. always tries to run up the sink.

Yaddle was the same way with baths :roll: She finally puts up with them, lol. I think she now knows that she has no choice and just lays in them :lol:

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
