Alright.. lets give you the low down on why a straight diet of pinkies and wax worms are bad.. Every heard of lipidosis? Liver disease? These things are caused by too much fat in the blood stream that clogs up the liver. When an animal is fed an exclusive diet of fatty foods.. (IE humans fed entirely on McDonalds food for a year or Leos fed entirely on Waxies and Pinkies) the fat starts to build up in the blood and deposit in the liver and around your other organs..This can cause organ failure. So while a fat leo is a healthy leo... This needs to be accomplished in a healthy way for your gecko..A strict diet of fatty foods isn't a healthy way to do it. Lizards process fat in a different way... but when they have too much of an influx of it it can cause problems and severely shorten the life span of your animals. Its not a quick killer.. but it does kill eventually and usually with a lot of pain and sickness involved in the end. So... if you want a healthy animal... I'd suggest changing your geckos diet.
