ok so i have indroduced silkworms to my geckos diet and i now i want to vary their diets even more.
they are currently being offered:
.crickets (staple 1)
.mealworms (staple 2)
. locusts
. silkworms
are there any other things i can try.. these butterworms are they good for leos? pinkies?
also does anyone know of any reputable live food shops in the UK... i know of livefoods direct but are there any others?
thanks for any help 
I can only help a little, pinkies really aren't recommended save for breeding females and then only once or twice a year. While high in calcium they are harder than insects to digest.
If we are talking an adult with good Ca levels, ours adores superworms... oh, I forget what they are called in the UK, kingworms maybe? Kinda ugly things that you have to have a really healthy gecko for because they are "the snack that fights back" and can bite on the way down if not crunched properly. That being said, my girl prefers them over even waxworms now for a treat, she really relishes them.
Sorry I can't help more.
