Hi all,
This is my first post on here! I’m just posting because I’ve had my leopard gecko for 6 months now and over the last few weeks he’s started eating a lot less and hiding more in his cold cave, he eats once every 4 days or so and it’s usually a morioworm and a couple of mealworms. Previously he would eat about 6 mealworms every day. What are your thoughts?

Don't worry! Leopard geckos older than 6 months don't need as much food as they used to. Eating every 2-3 days is normal. Be careful with the marioworms, they are very fatty and should only be fed as a treat. As for going into the cold hide more, it be that he's brumating. Do check the temperature in the hot end though, it could be too hot.
