    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I have an adult Leo since last April... this is our first winter together. He is about 2 years old.
He slowed down and started eating less and I didn't worry too much thinking it was the season but now he hasn't eaten for almost 3 weeks!!!
He has not lost any weight, his tail is still nice and fat, he comes out and when I offer him food all he wants is climb on my hand. He is alert and curious, he doesn't look sick. His colors have not faded. He is still pooping (much less than normal of course).
A few more details: he is in a 20 gallon tank with 1 humid hide on the warm side + 3 dry hides (warm, cool and intermediate). He has been on paper towels since I got him and constantly has calcium and water available. The temps are 90-93 on the warm (UTH) side and ~78 on the cool side (checked daily with a temp gun). He normally eats mealworms and has refused crickets from the day he met his first mealy.
Should I try giving him waxworms or something else? Should I take him to the vet?
 
as long as he is not drastically losing any weight and his poop is normal you have nothing to worry about, this is pretty normal for them, i have a few that have eaten 5 mealworms in 6 weeks

keep offering food though, he''ll eat eventually
