What can geckos eat besides live bugs?

Leopard geckos are strictly "insectivores" relying strictly on insects. Most worms are not to be considered insects, although they are the larva form of one, but most leopards take a great interest in: silk worms, horned worms (tomato worms), super worms, meal worms, and they also really like but also become addicting, butter worms and wax worms. Do not solely rely on the butter and wax worms due to the high amounts of fat. A leopard gecko rely on a moving prey.

What eats Leopard Geckos?

Leopard geckos are carnivorus. Young leopard geckos in captivity should eat small crickets and small meal worms and small tomato worms that are dusted in a vitimon supilment. Larger,older leopard geckos in captivity should eat larger crickets,mealworms, tomatoworms, and wax worms. Wax worms are a treat and should only be fed every couple weeks. Make sure to have a veriety avaible to the geckos. Many owners feed pregnant females pinkies (new born mice). I do not recomend because leopard geckos in the wild do not eat pinkies. you can also feed large leopard geckos super worms,as long as you crush there heads so their almost dead by the time your Leo eats them. if they are not dead they can possibly eat their way out o the stomach


Can you feed your leopard gecko waxworms if hes getting to skinny?

Yes you should feed your Leopard Gecko wax worms if hes getting to skinny. However, you shouldn't always feed it as his main food. They can get obeyed and be addicted to wax worms. This is bad. So, only feed your Leopard Gecko 3 times a day, in the morning, in the evening, and in the night. If your Leopard Gecko refuses to eat it store the wax worm back into its container.


Is a leaf tailed gecko an omnivore?

No. Geckos are strictly carniverous. They feed on live food. This can be crickets, locusts and mealworms. These can be bought from reptile/pet stores. I would advise finding a live food supplier before buying your gecko. Pinky mice can also be fed to a full grown gecko, but this is against the law in the UK.
