Hello everyone! A couple weeks ago, I came across one of the breeder leos for the store I work at. She had just laid eggs and had a thick layer of stuck shed. I removed the shed for her and have been trying to get her to eat. She is extremely skinny, yet very active and lively. She refuses to eat. I've tried every feeder we have, crickets, mealworms, dubias, waxworms, etc. Right now im syringe feeding her a slurry of Repashy Grub Pie, calcium, and reptaboost. Any advice or ideas? Ive put feeders in her mouth but she spits them right out. Thank you for your time!

Some breeders get pretty deconditioned during the season and may not feel like eating. Some of them snap back. I'm not breeding anymore but most of my geckos aren't eating much. By the middle of the summer they'll be eating everything until about September.
