The Crested Gecko Diet by T-Rex is very good to give to crested geckos. Fresh pureed fruit can also be giving instead of baby food (you can add a bit of calcium and multivitamin to the puree as well). Crested geckos will eat most small insects, including crickets, small silkworms, small butterworms, small superworms or newly molted mealworms. They may eat wingless fruitflies but I am not sure on this. They certainly will eat silkworm moths, shadflies and other soft bodied insects.
