Tiny is about to shed again . . .

savigeckolvr Feb 29, 2004 07:16 PM

And she still eats like a pig!! I went ahead and put some more mealies in there since her dish was empty, but I figured she wouldn't want any because she was all pale and will shed soon. I put 15 mealies in there, and they were all gone in about 2 or 3 minutes lol. She also ate two waxies earlier today because I wanted her to come out and show my mom how big she is getting. She eats like 15-20 mealies a day to every other day plus a few waxies (at least until I run out of waxies anyway Tiny is the gecko I got from Petsmart who was kind of skinny when I got her. Well, she's making up for it now lol. I am gonna get a pic of her after she sheds and post it

only feed waxies at most once a week. They can become addicted to them. Not to mention as how they are very unnutritional.

OK I won't give them to Geico as much, since I don't want him to get addicted. But Tiny will still get them as she has been because she needs the extra fat she still isn't quite as fat as I'd like her to be. Also can you store them in the fridge? They have started pupating and thats why I've been trying to use them up faster.
