Question
I have a female leopard gecko %26 I got her a partner. She started laying eggs after she lost alot of weight. I dint expect her to lay eggs so soon.I am not a breeder i honestly regret getting her partner. Shes not eating as much %26 i don't know if the male gecko is haressing her. I just separated them. I bought an appetite stimulant %26 calcium powder %26 calcium worms to help out. I'm really worried and i don't know what do do.

Answer
 Everything you have done so far is exactly what I would have done.  She may take more time to get used to being allone again but she should start eating.  If she hasn't in the next few days have her checked by the vet to make sure she has laid all her eggs, a retained egg can cause her other problems.
