Hi rikster ~

I would try crickets or Blaptica dubia roaches (in a tall slippery container to prevent escapes). Have you access to Repashy Meal Replacement Powder or Clark's Frugivorous Gecko Diet powder that you mix with water? Many cresties love those!

Ya agreeing with elizabeth when my cresty was little now he's getting into adult stage soon or juvenile I fed him pinhead crickets with calcium vitamin and d3 every other feeding along with the obvious supply of crested gecko diet that is always in his cage
