Question about feeding new fat tailed gecko

adshawksfan Oct 23, 2004 05:37 PM

Hi everyone I got a fat tailed gecko on thursday and so far he has not eaten any thing I put 2 small crickets in his cage last night and there still there so I tried to give him a wax worm but no luck he just is staying in his hide and does not come out. Any suggestions to get him to eat.

Sorry about that.

What you really should know is that after bringing a gecko home, they won't entirely thrilled with food(That just goes for the majority of them). So, just give the gecko some more time and try again. Keep us posted and if the gecko dosn't eat within another 3-5 days just let us know what's going on. I don't know much about Fat Tails, but I'll do my best to help you.

Well having 2 leopard geckos and from the expierence i have gather, and the fact that people say fat tails are like leos, when you first get them they are stressed from the move and they dont eat for about 3-5 days.
