Hi Lovina ~

Thanks for posting.

I have never had tokays, but 3 crickets every day for a 200 gm gecko can't be enough!!! Do you mean 20 grams?

I am going to move your inquiry to the tokay subforum so that you can get some advice.

200 grams is a HUGE gecko. He needs more than 3 crickets at a time.

I disagree. 3 crickets per day are plenty for a 200g tokay.

Best

Considering my adult Tokays range from 60-110 grams and they'll pound 6-10 each (not always the same amount each night), I definitely have to agree that 3 is too few for a 200 gram.

Please post pictures, Lovina!
