Nutritionally, Phoenix worms would be fine for your Leopard Geckos. I have lots of Leos and I tried giving them Phoenix worms, but none of them would eat them. I give a few of my Geckos wax worms occasionally but just as a treat or to fatten them up. Wax Worms are way to high in fat to give them as part of a regular diet. One of my girls also loves Super worms. Supers fall into the same category as wax worms, way too high in fat.
