hi! 
oats are good, if you want to add variety, you can add some wheat, fish flakes, calcium powder 4 ur leos, trex cricket sandfire gutload, and there's some insect gutload at the pet store. other than that, it's fine. be sure to toss & refill your gutload every 2-3 weeks. also, instead of shredded carrots mixed into the gutload, you might just want a thumb-size peice of carrot on a small folded piece of paper towel in the container, so it's easier for you to change every 3-4 days to avoid molding. good luck & have fun!

Yeah my geckos are doing great to. They are so social. I went to just look at them and King Henry came out of his castle and nuzzled the glass where my hand was. It was awesome!! I'm about to post some pics of the new ones, the new female wouldn't sit still long enough for a picture so i'll get that one tomorrow night.

Yeah it took my Leo forever!!!!!!! to get on my hand. I laid my hand in the cage and finally after 20 minutes or so she crawled on my hand and i went over to the floor and just held her for a little while. She likes to run around on the carpet.
Watching them eat is still the greatest...lol!!!!!!!!!
