It really depends on the animal. Some will just stop, others can eat enough that they throw it up. Are you feeding Crested Gecko Food normally, because that is the best thing for the gecko as they primarily eat fruit.

Yes i have him straight on CGD its just my dad was looking at him and wigled his finger and my crested gecko went to eat his finger =P so i decided to give him some activity by getting him some crickets. I got 5 of them and he eat them all in a row after he was done licking him self i gave him some water and he drank it up then i put him back in his terrarium

Ok, just checking, it should be fine to give him a few dusted crickets every so often. I don't usually feed mine crickets, but have once. I had the cricket tank (for my leopard gecko) next to my crested's tank, and he was stalking the crickets, so I could not say no to a couple of crickets for him.
