Reptile & Amphibian Forums

My blissful 3 year old leo seems to have aquainted a taste for pinkies in the past year. as so any other adult leo. and every so often i swipe her a pinkie. but yesterday i gave her a fuzzy and she downed it with no problem. i watched her all the way through, just like you should with any herp snake to skink to tegu to tocaii and in this case leo. well i always watch them eat 1) firstly because it makes me happy and 2) secondly just in case any-thing happens im there to assist them. well i know you might think i'm looney for feeding her the fuzzy. so ill just ask any one in the forum whats the largest thing you feed your leo.....and also whats the most plump and healthy leo you've cared for and gave your undivided attention......

from one leo to the other,

Its ok as long as she eats it and its ment for reptiles its ok. And leos never get over weight. Just never force feed her unless shes not eating.
Good luck

I dont think your crazy, many leos could take a fuzzy no problem. I once got a pink for my leo, but the people at the petstore gave me a fuzzy instead, it was quite large, but I gave it to my leo anyway, and she took it, ate it, and had a very large belly after that.
Actually, leos CAN get overweight, any carnavore can get over weight. If you fed your leo a pink everyday, your leo would be overweight. Many people make the mistake of thinking fatter is better, but this is not the case. The fatter the tail the better in my opinion. Later
