So my leo has not eaten in a week. I thought maybe at first she wasn't eating because she had been moved about since I was moving. She usually does that if her cage moved, but starts eating again a couple days later.

She is pregnant and is expected to lay in the next week or two. This is her second clutch. She's always been really healthy and eats plenty. Right now she even passes up her favorite treat, mealworms. She just kind of turns her nose up to them. I don't know what is wrong. Any ideas?

I talked to my local herptologist. He suggested it may just be because she's ready to lay her eggs and I didn't have anything in there for her to lay in that apparently she (Viki) found suitable. I put a new egg laying chamber in there with a different peat-mossy substrate. So hopefully she finds that okay.
