I've had my 3 female Leo's for about 9 years now... kept their tank setup the same for quite a while... it's a 20L tank, with ceramic heating element on top of the tank on the right side, pointing down, with an under-tank heating element also on the right side, below the humid hide. the left side of the tank has a cool hide for them, and there are some driftwood branches for them to crawl around on. Substrate is repti-felt, with a layer of paper towels on top. They have 3 dishes in their terrarium - one with a multi-vit powder, one with water, and the other is food.

I feed them about once every week or two.. I put about 25 large mealworms in there for them, with some orange cricket gutload food for the mealworms to eat. The leos seem healthy and happy, fat tails, etc...

Just curious - what does your feeding schedule look like for your leos?

This photo is about 4 yrs old, but they still look the same

0.3 Leopard Geckos - Lexi and Libby (clutchmates), each about 9 yrs old, and Lilly - about 8 yrs old.

Everything sounds good and it sounds like they're thriving. Are there still live mealworms in the dish when you feed them once every week or two? I would base your feeding time frame on when they're all gone whether that be sooner or later than every week or two. Adults certainly don't eat as much as younger leos.

I got 2 males each about 4 years old now,
When they were young hatchlings/juvis is fed them every other night a few gutloaded/dusted pin sized crickets with an occasional waxworm for weight gain (they were skinny pet store pickups)

Now I feed every 2-3 days. They never seem to stop eating so I have to limit them before their stomachs distend. I usually feed 3-4 good and fat crickets (gutloaded) and I dust em every other meal. I also give them 1-2 super worms that I stun. They have a hard time with the carapace of the worms so I try to be conservative with feeding them. I'll even cut the worms in half if im not lazy.

I feed them usually in the evening or late-night when they are activep
