Hi All, (new to forum)

Hello, I just got my first Crested. He's so cute.

I read to feed fruit baby food (and crix). Can I feed mashed up fresh fruit instead?

Yes Crushed up fruit mixed calcium would be alot better then baby food. baby food has to much suger for them. you could also get CGD (Crested Gecko Diet)just follow the directions on the bottle. Mine also eats calcium dusted mealworms. feed fruit or CGD every 2 days them every third day feen em calcium dusted crickets or mealworms. i use Leopard gecko dust to calcium dust my crickets and mealworms...
