I have two baby leos... had them about 5 weeks now and love 'em. They don't like being handled so I don't push it.. But last week one of them had a problem with me. Instead of putting mealworms in a bowl and crawling out.. I usally just dip the bowl down and let them eat some worms every night at the same time. They got used to this and seemed to come to me and start to tame to me. But last week one of my geckos tried to eat too many worms at once and started choking. He was like going into a seizer(sp) with this worm hanging out of his mouth.. So i went to pick him up and he spazzed! He jump up and flipped and frecked out!! Then he ran after my hand bitting. I waited awhile and tried feeding again. He ran over jump and started attacking the bowl! He was chomping continously! And now I can't even stick my hand in there without him running over and freaking out! What do I do??

Give him a few days to calm down and go back to your old feeding routine. If they start to choke again leave them be they can hack out crix or worms like you wouldn't believe. I had one of mine bounce a crix off the opposite end of my 40 gal long.
