Update on blind Leo...
So I went to the vet and she confirmed my fear about Delilah being blind. I took my vitamin powders and she said that my dusting routine and how much was fine, but couldn't give me a reason for why her sight has gone poor little one. So I've been experimenting with her food today and I've found out that if I clip all legs off a cricket and put them in a bowl dabbed with waxworm 'juice' she manages to sniff her way to them, so that's a plus!
She already knows where her mealies are kept so she still moseys on over to them and she's putting on weight and still wanders around so I don't think she's affected too much!
But I'm going to keep an eye on her and keep up with the waxworm juice crickets to get her eating a varied diet! I'm sure she'll be fine

It sounds like you're both doing great dealing with her deficite. Since she is blind she ill def. Use more scent tracking. The other senses will heighten and compensate for the blindness. Just be sure to keep things in the same place, don't move things too much. Comfort to the blind is consistancy. Keep up the good work.
