Can you give us some background. Enclosure, temps, lighting, substrate, how often and what did he eat. Any change in enviroment, cage furniture.

Is Kiko about to go through a shed? Sometimes when my dragon is about to shed he will stop eating for a couple of days. What are you feeding Kiko? He could just be tired of a certain type of food.

Sounds like she might need a vet check. i would see if you could get an appt and take in a poop sample to check for parasites and such.

I agree with Venus that she needs a vet check. Don't worry about the vegetables, I have never gotten my dragon to eat veggies, however he does like mango baby food which I feed to him around 1-2 times a week.

Never tried baby food. But, I am not as concerned to hear others do not liked their vegies. Thanks for the info, I'll give it a try.
I'm with bluedragon with the point: Do they ever get tired of eating the same thing? |

Have you tried crickets? - mealworms can be harder to digest because of the hard exoskeleton so for this reason we don't feed our lizards them as a staple, just every few days.
I agree with Marsha, if she hasn't started eating yet and is lethargic a vet check would be the best thing to make sure she is ok. The lethargy does seem worrying, how is she now?
