Hatchling eating ??'s

GeckoFire Aug 07, 2003 09:25 PM

I know hatchlings won't eat until after their first shed. I was just curious typically how long until their first shed? I read posts on different ways to get leos to eat, but I didn't really see a whole lot regarding how long after hatching they shed. any and all help is appreciated! Thanks

Mine ate 3 days after hatching, I just put a mealworm in front of the hide and bang they attacked it. I have yet to see one shed so I have no idea how long it was untill they did shed.

Good Luck
