hey...
my other leo (not new ones) hasnt really eaten in a few months... she is not pooping.. but she isn't loosing any weight either.. I have tried changing the light (as have had a similar problem with a previous leo as didnt change light for about 8 months (oops) )Anyways... she is shedding her skin on a weekly basis more or less.... it has NEVER been this frequent.. its not normal is it? plus its very shredded, she gets it stuck on her face quite often and it doesnt come off.. she gets it stuck on her toes and has lost a few... because it doesnt come off like it should... it is quite flakey at times...
I dont really know what to do... she isn't losing weight, and apart from this she looks healthy... vets are SO expensive for reptiles I dont really want to take her unless I need to....
