Amy, if they continue to not eat a vet check should be taken into concideration. Losing weight like that may be a sign of internal parasites. But I have no Leopard Gecko experience so I can't be a whole lot of specific help, sorry

Good Luck

Alex

Not only are wax worms addictive, but they are also fatty and can lead to fatty liver disease. It's safest just to stay clear of them and stick with things like crickets, meal worms, butter worms, silk worms, pheonix worms, etc. If you search with google, you should be able to find nutritional information about all of them .
