ok i think they/we might need more info .
eg: how hot is the enclosure , are u handling it , is it dark/night time when your trying to get it to eat ?
 
How old is it and what temps are you running?
was it being cooled by the last owner?
 
Male, full grown, 18 to 22 degrees, try to feed at night

Dont know how old but its fully grown and its male if that makes it different and it has a heat mat ..... the cage thermometer says around 18 degrees most the time then gets up to around 22 ish ..... im getting a bigger heat mat today and yes its dark and night time wen i try to feed...
 
Hey Mitch , is it in the new enclosure ??
I am sure the way i had it , it would have been much hotter than 18-22 , so maybe the new mat will get more heat to it .
Probably why it may not be eating , dont handle it either , as i said they are not really for handling , will only stress it out .
