What the best way to add some pounds to a leopard gecko?
--Just so you know, nothing is wrong with the gecko. He has a respectable weight, but i think he could use a fatter tail, and maybe a bigger body.
Thanks!

a nice way to fatten up a leo is to feed them some waxworms. but be careful, cuz they can get addicted to them and refuse other foods. waxworms are really high in fat, so they work nicely to add a couple rolls to your leos

you can feed ONE wax worm ONCE a week or ONCE EVERY OTHER week because they are extremely addicting and your leo can avoid other foods. it'll be a little hard to wean him off. also, be sure to gutload your feeders well or else it'd be harder to get him fatter. be careful with those waxies.
