hello :3
How often should I feed my female leopard gecko? She is around 6months old. I feed her mealworms and crickets.
Please share a picture of her right on this thread.
Feed just about daily. Be sure to lightly dust with supplements (calcium and vitamins) 2x weekly. Check out the Cricket Guidelines posted right on the new Leo Forums.
Gutloading the Feeders versus Feeding the Feeders 24/7
The term gutloading causes some confusion. Feed your feeders a nutritious regular diet all the time to build strong feeder bodies. Then only feed a special GUTLOAD product to the crickets, for example, 1-2 days prior to feeding the crickets to your geckos. T-REX Calcium Plus Cricket Food is a good gutload food. Top off the crickets by lightly dusting with a multivitamin containing D3/vitamin A acetate and phosphorus-free calcium with D3 no more than 2x weekly.
