You will need to give as much info as possible as it could be many things.
Like lights, temps, suppliments, viv size, age,how long has it been going on and some pics.
My male veiled doesnt use his as he got MBD when he was young through bad advice.

you can hand feed her if she cannot use her tongue. She should eat from your hand like a dog or cat if she is hungry. We need to find out why she is not using her tongue. Please go to the forum tab above, health clinic section and then fill out the how to ask for help form.
