Hi,

I have two golden geckos and they are addicted to mealworms and banana babyfood (I thought I'd post here since goldens have similar care requirements to tokays) Anyway, can anyone give me some advice on how to ween them off their bad habit? I want to get them to eat crickets and real fruit, because I only want to offer mealworms as an occassional treat, and real fruit is always better than baby food. Every time I put crickets or a banana in there the geckos never touch it. What should I do?

Thanks
