Question leo dumb or have eye problems ??

my leo wont look at anything thats over about 10cm away from her.

even if its moving which is really annoying due to it usually being crickets. she then misses these and doesnt eat them and they run and hide under the rocks.

anyone elses do this ???

anyone know wat to do ???

A few of mine wont look at anything if its far away.

If she is having problems hunting, you could help her by pulling off the jumping legs or partly squashing them so they cant run fast.
