Hi,
My name is carlos and Im new on these forums. I've recently bought a 1 yr old male crested gecko and a 4 month old juvinile crested gecko.I have a few questions In regard to their eating,My older male doesnt seem to be eating the live creckets I put in his cage...im not sure if he is or if they are just getting out because I've seen a few roaming around the. he does however eat the cgd food as well as a mixture of goober bananna & strawberry mixed with some crested gecko diet but only when Im feeding him outside the cage, he doesnt seem to touch it while inside his cage, anything I can do to spruce up his food , maybe some honey idk...He's very active some nights and some he stays in the same spot for a majority of the night...Is this normal or cause for concern. the baby is lively and is a very good eater, He will eat some of the baby food and will eat crickets. I do dust my crickets with the calcium powder every feeding and use the calcium powder once or twice a week.
How many times would I generally feed them, Right now its 4 times a week and I cycle between crickets and food mixtures.
Any advice would be great and I would really appreciate.

thanks for hearing me out. -carlos
