I post about this some time ago, but i dont get any answer so i'll try again My gecko eat every two day, He stuff himself up one day and dont eat the next. I was wondering if it is normal or if i do something wrong. His temp are about 90 in the hot spot and around 77 in the cold spot. That vary a bit cause the temp around here arent very stable this time of year. I do have a heat pad too. Last meal he take he ate 4 waxworm, 1 medium superworm and maybe 8 mealies. He is 6 inch long.

My leo does the very same thing one day she will eat about 15 mealworms then the next day she wont eat at all so its normal.

But thats just my 3 cents Email

Wow... thats a lot of worms...

I tend to control the amount they eat. My 8-inch Leo Female will eat 5 king-worms a day, and my 10-inch Leo Male will chow on 7 king-worms a day. With that ammount, they tend to eat every night. I might go pinki shopping tonight to variety to the diet.

When it comes to Crickets, its a tough call. I'll put about 4-6 in both cages and some night they are all gone, and others, 1 or 2 will be left. This could be that they are better hiding crickets then the others.

Good luck!
