sounds like she needs a good spanking and sent to bed with no supper. No just kidding, sometimes they get a stubborn streak in them like that. Did you try superworms they are biiger and meatier. Pinkies will suffice though till she gets back to eating right.

:I have a four year old female leo who has been fed crickets her whole life. about 3 weeks ago, she stopped eating them. I tried waxworms and she wouldn't eat them either. after about a week I went and got two pinkies for her and she ate them without a problem. She still won't eat crickets. I know a diet of just pinkies is unhealthy, but she won't eat anything else. My question is, is there anything I can supplement them with that will keep her healthy? please respond fast.

:Thank you
