Gecko lepord lizards?

Question

Im about to get 2 gecko lepord lizards and i have no crickets yet. What else can they eat?

Answer 1

All insects should be gut loaded before feeding them to your Leos, and dusted (put in plastic bag and shaken) with reptile vitamins, and calcium D3 2-4 times a week, depending on age.

Insects should be no larger than the space between the lizards' eyes.  You can give them small Silk, Phoenix; meal, etc. worms as well as crickets.

Do not offer wax worms other than rarely as a treat.  They are fattening and have no nutritional value.  They can also be additive (I personally do not use them).

A varied diet is the secret to a healthy animal.

I'll post some links below for you to check out, but please note my disclaimer.  One of the sites has a good recipe for gut loading insects.

Enjoy your Leos, and I hope this has been helpful.
