Leopard Gecko

Leopard geckos are one of the better beginner reptiles that one can have. They have relatively easy husbandry requirements, making Caring For Leopard Geckos pretty simple. Being a smaller reptile in the pet trade, leopard geckos only need at minimum a 10 gallon aquarium, again making housing them come with ease.

Leopard geckos are insectivores, eating crickets, mealworms, superworms, butterworms, roaches, waxworms, silkworms, and phenix worms. But, sometimes when they're sick or stressed, the will not eat. If the temperatures in their enclosure are not correct, they may stop eating, as well. When your leopard gecko stops eating, you can tray various things. Do NOT try force feeding, unless it is you absolute last possible option! When you notice weight loss from you leopard gecko's tail and body weight, you may want to take the gecko to the vet. You can try a different feeder insect, and lastly, you could try the leopard gecko slushy.

Ball Pythons

Ball pythons are by far my favorite snake. They're very docile and reach a decent length- not too big or too small. But the one thing I absolutely HATE about ball pythons is their known reputation for being finicky eaters.

Hopefully, by reading the article you will figure out why your snake isn't eating and what you can do for him.

Feeding Frozen is another good article about the frozen feeder rodents versus live feeder rodents. Now, I will go ahead and say that I feed live. Not by choice, but because my ball python won't eat frozen. Now, his last feeding, he grabbed and fully took a thawed mouse before I gave him a live small rat. That, to me, means he's ready to comply. I'm choosing to wait 3-4 weeks before feeding him again, so that he's good and hungry. Then I'll be attempting a thawed small rat.
