Well, the first issue I can see is that you do not appear to know exactly what species of animal you are attempting to keep. Geckos are a huge family of lizards from a wide range of environments.

The most commonly kept species are leopard geckos and crested geckos, and their needs could not possibly be more different from each other.

I recommend you purchase a book on care for the species you have, and check your husbandry. Husbandry problems will be the number one cause of failure to thrive in captive reptiles.

Also, do not handle the animal until it's healthy and eating well, and if you believe it is sick, take it immediately to an experienced reptile veterinarian for a checkup and a fecal exam.

Can leopard gecko eat veggies?

They do not eat vegetables directly. However, they will eat crickets and worms that have recently fed on vegetables, and thereby receive all of their necessary nutrients. A leopard gecko is an insectivore, strictly relying on insects of various sizes and shapes. The leopard gecko is native to the deserts of Afghanistan and not much vegetation is in the area. There are minimal trees and shallow shrubs that provide protection from hot days, but not much in the way of foods for these animals. They may nibble at a vegetable (some types of geckos have diets that include nectar and fruits) but it is not something that they would choose to eat.
