Geckos stopped eating

ginny23 Mar 01, 2004 07:32 PM

I was away in Seattle for a week and the girl who was feeding all my cats didnt want to feed the lizards. I gave them a nice heavy dose of mealies b4 i left and I returned a week ago Sunday. So they went a week without eating and they havent eaten since ive returned a week ago. Whats going? Any tips on how to get them back on schedule?

a couple ppl dont like the way i do it, but i feed my geckos on a weekly bases. every friday. i put in 15 crickets, along with a type of gut load so they eat that instead of the geckos, 3 silk worms and every other week a pinkie or 2. if you put a potato or sumtin like that so they dont go after the geckos, just put some crickets in the tank dont wrry bout taking them out or any thing just let them in there when they get hungry they will eat. if they dont eat adn they start loosing there fat reserves from there tails then u need to get them to a vet.
hope this helps
