SO PISSED OFF READY TO SELL 
So Nan decided that 3 dys of eating in a row is enough for her and hasn’t eaten since thursday! Honestly I am sick and tired of doing everything i can for her. If anyone is in MD and wants a lizard and cage the whole deal.....she is yours! I am so pissed at her.

Really? You are just giving up like that? You know, things like this take time, effort, and patience... lots and lots of patience. Don’t be pissed at her, what fault is it of hers? She’s not doing this on purpose just to defy you or make you mad.

I have been trying anything I am not giving up just yet, but if she doesn’t shape up in another month I must sell her, I am a college student and can’t handle this. I don’t understnd what kind of gecko has no will to eat on its own or when you put food right in front of its face!

I have a baby corn snake that’s the same. he hatched in October 08 and has not eaten a thing on his own. i am force feeding it every week. It takes time and Patience. he is slowly putting on weight and growing very slowly! but i wouldnt have just dumped him.
Keep trying.

If you are talking about a leopard gecko, 3 days in a row of not eating isn’t normal. Leopard geckos shouldn’t be fed everyday to begin with. (Unless they are babies or gravid.) One of my Leos refused food for three weeks, and I had to force feed her. My husbandry was spot on. She’s just a stubborn little girl. 3 days? that’s nothin!

I have not given up on her, that was all said in my pissed off rage. But honestly I dont want to have her never eat on her own. And force feeding isnt my thing or hers. She really hates being forced and I hate doing it.

Is she an adult or a baby? Is she a new gecko? Adults should only be fed about 3 times a week. Some babies, and even adults are stressed because its a new environment so they refuse to eat. If the gecko is new, leave it alone as much as possible, and try to keep the room very quiet. This is especially important if it is a baby. They need to eat very often.

Shes a baby maybe. Still got her blue shades on so shes got plenty of growing to do. I have a friend who bought one at the same time and he’s smiley huge now. Colossal. Capable of sinking the titanic huge. Its just frustrating for me because I got all the necessary equipment and more and my friend just has a tank with 4 rocks, a small uth and a florescent light and hers became jabba the hut haha. Maybe I’m being impatient

if it is a baby give it time for sure i wouldnt feed mine everyday but like 2 times a week or everyother day
but if he/she is an adult or a year older and doesnt eat for a couple of weeks go to a vet for sure
also if he/she is a baby and eatting with sand take the sand out it will back he/she up and wont poop.
