How many crickets will your leo eat in one sitting. I know some people say to feed them what ever they can eat in 15 min. How many will they eat in that time, and how many times do you feed them a week? I know that every leo is different but I'm just wondering what other people do.

I have a juvenile Leo, she eats 10-17 crickets a night!

I feed mine 4ths, the older geckos will eat about 7-10 crickets in a sitting and the younger ones will pretty much eat as much as I give them :lol: I generally give them 10 crickets or 6-7 small locusts. Feed them 2-3 times a week, but I now have one overweight gecko so she's on a diet, only fed twice a week ;-)

If I let him, I think he would eat an infinite number of crickets. Normally he has 8 or 9 per night. The amount really varies, though, depending on the size of the crickets and whether or not I'm feeding him anything else.

I usually give my male (6 months old) a hornworm or a couple silkworms, a couple mealies and a couple dusted crickets. He also gets a couple waxworms once a week. I buy butterworms sometimes but they seem to be his least favorite. He'll eat about 5 times a week, I offer him something everyday but somedays he's just not interested and ignores it. Usually after a hornworm he won't eat the next day.
