So, I'm getting worried since he is so young. I got him from a breeder that I have previously gotten my two leos from. He has all of his animals eating mealworms from tongs and told me he was having no issues feeding this little guy. I fed him the second night of having him (which was the fourteenth of this month) and he readily ate three small mealworms. He was eating steadily until last Sunday (the twenty first) where he was taking no interest. I assumed he just needed a day off from eating, so I didn't worry. But, he hasn't eaten since Sunday. I tried feeding him today. He at least looked at it, but made no motions towards biting the worm. He is 7g now, so I'm kind of worried about how long he can go without eating. I have an UTH that keeps the cave he mostly stays in around the lower 90s. He has lots of hiding places, but he chooses to dig burrows in the substrate in that cave. He did come out to get water last night.
I may be just over thinking things, but I haven't had a gecko this young before, so I am uneasy. Any help would be great and if I left out any other info, feel free to ask.
Thanks!
