My mothers female Panther is not eating. She is lethargic and now when I go to pick her up she doesn't even get upset. We don't want to lose her and not sure what to do. This has been going on for about a few weeks.
Please help!

Have you tried feeding her small mealworms? Because I have a veiled baby chameleon and I had the same problem when I was feeding him crickets but then he suddenly stopped eating which was weird and he went like a whole day without eating so I got him small mealworms and he started eating again.

She is 2 years old and has laid eggs three times. Her cage is regulated and we have been doing everything by the book. We have a male who is 2 and he is doing awesome. My husband thinks that she ate a fake leaf and it's not passing. We have live plants in her cage and all four walls are screened.
