One area to look for is the base of their tail, I've read that they store extras there. I'd say Lola could probably go a month or two without food. She's got a fat tail at the base. There are alot of lizards that store in their tails for days or weeks when there is little food available to them. By the way, Harry is a eating machine now. He had 3 servings today..and his stomach is looking so much better, no more layers of skin folds. I guess force feeding him the water mix is doing the job. We'll wait another month to take pictures of him and will try to get the website fixed by then.
