Info about my geckos and a question

fadetolemons Mar 17, 2004 06:12 PM

Well after having my leos for some time and watching them I've made a few observations-

Wedge- This little guy is the most active in my group, he explores a lot more and is more friendly w/ me
Stamps- He is the most chilled out of my leos and loves the heat and his moist hide.
Treble- this little fellow is a little darker colored than my other two. Also, he eats at least 2 or 3 times as much as the others!

About Treble, I'm not sure if him eating so much is good. It's not like he's not giving the other leos a chance, one of them will be completely on the other side of the cage and have crickets but not eat any. For instance, I gave them about 8 mealworms this morning and when i got home from school they were all gone, so i put my last 3 worms in the bowl and treble ran out and ate them. And so i came home about an hour ago w/ crickets and put a few in, and Treble ate like 6 or 7.. and the others ate one or 2.. so i put a few more in, and a few more, and treble keeps eating, he mustve eating somewhere between 9-12 good sized crickets, and he had 3 mealworms an hour or 2 before. that seems like a bit much considering that i've been feeding them nonstop. Anyways, he still looks like he's the thinnest in the group, but I just hope he isn't overeating or the others undereating.

if you are worry about Treble eating too munch and it is ok for Leopard Gecko. If you are worry about eating up food for other then house them sperately.
