Feeding...please help

I posted this a little lower but got no responses. sorry to be a nag but i really need to know.

My gecko is about 5.5 inches long and i have been feeding 1/2 to 3/4 inch crickets to her. She takes these crickets very easily and i was wondering if it is time to increase the size of the crickets. Maybe inch long crickets? I know she can take inch long crickets because the other day the pet store only had inch longs so i had no choice. She ate the inch long fine but i just want to know if that is the size she should be on or not. So anyway, what size cricket do you suggest i feed to my gecko. Thanks.

As long as she has no problems eating them and she can swallow them with no difficulty then go ahead and increase the food size to inch long crickets.
