Day 2 no eating

[Nicholasdeaan]

It's been two days since my 4 month old female veiled has eaten. The temps are fine and so is the humidity. She doesn't act interested in the crickets what so ever. Is this out of the norm or no?

Do you ever put a variety of different feeders? Maybe she's tired of crickets, lol they can be stubborn!

My Cham Def has his shares of hunger strikes, if she stopped eating crickets, buy some super worms, gut load them and try those, then try and keep switching up her food. My male veiled is very picky eating crickets sometimes, hornworms, silkworms, Phoenix larvae, wax worms, silk worm moths, mealworms beetles. He used to eat dubias but stopped, now I'm stuck with roaches .. You get my point, they need variety, some more than others. If the hunger strike continues I would go to the vet and get a fecal sample, parasites would be my suggestion

I'll try that! Do pet stores usually sell super worms and the others or would I have to order them?
