I'm getting my first crested gecko in 2 days, it's a bit over 2 months. I already purchased everything I need online including repashy crested gecko diet 3.0. I'm just wondering how much and how often I should feed it???? I hear they have tiny stomachs and don't eat much during each feeding and I don't want to waste any of the crested gecko diet. Also I've read some info saying to give new food every day and some saying give new, fresh food every other day.....I'm just confused. I would think babies/juveniles need to be feed daily for proper growth???

I always have food on hand in the enclosure. I tong feed appropriate sized crickets 2-3/week for the little ones. MRP on alternating days. Try Pangea mix too. My guys love it. They will tell you when they are full by walking away or turning their head. Trust that they know when they are full.

hey Crestie_mommy, while questions are always OK here, I would strongly encourage you to just spend some time reading a few pages worth of prior posts in the crestie subforum. I remember how full of questions I was when I got my first crestie, and I can tell you that a lot of people have the same questions. chances are pretty good most of your early questions have already been answered with discussion that could be helpful to you now.
