If this doesn't switch him over to the Rhapashy diet, try the Clark's...its a bit more fruity in smell and some geckos may take to it better than the Rhapashy diet. I have noticed the Clark's complete diet doesn't smell as fruity to me as their original diet which still required regular feeding of insects, so the original diet may be a last alternative as it was designed to be fed along with crickets and is healthier than baby food (lacks all the added sugar babyfood tends to have and has most nutrients needed, minus proteins which why it needs crickets fed as well).



It may even be possible to get a free sample of the crested or gargoyle complete diet at a show. I received the one I have from a show this past October and its a very big jar (probably around 4 oz) which is quite nice to get for free.
