Ive had my leopard gecko for 7 years now. His colour, the thickness of his tail and overall health is excellent. I started feeding him the variety pack of insects at the beginning, such as crickets, mealworms, etc. From there, i moved onto only the occasional pinky mouse, and wax worms for treats, but for the most part his diet constists of superworms. I bought those worms from the pet store but i feed those worms veggies and fruit. I gut load them with that and my gecko loves them. At least his reaction when i feed him demonstrates that. For over a year now and usually after feeding him the superworms i will bite off a piece of apple for my gecko to lick. Occasionally he ll try to take a bite of the apple, but for the most part he just licks it. A good does of vitamin A. Ive read fruit is good, and ive read fruit is bad for geckos, and that you should stick to just insects. Well i think those same people also let their gecko live in discarded buter containers and an aquarium the size of the Barbie convertable car. Overall i think the rule of thumb is everything in moderation. I dont give him a lot of fruit ever, just a taste, dessert if you will, but i never over do it. He also goes crazy for nectarine, and peaches, but could care less for bannanas, and Oranges. Hes picky i guess. Anyone else have any thoughts about geckos eating fruit?
right i have a leopard gecko too. she didn't like strawberries but loved a little piece of pineapple. and she's still alive. so i agree it's fine in moderation. i usually give her a little with a superworm on holidays. she has no idea. but she loves the change.
No. Leopard geckos are insectivores which means that they like to eat insects such as moths, crickets or Spiders. They tend to prefer live food over dead food.
Leopard geckos are insectivores relying on a variety of live prey. They do not eat vegetables.
I cut a little piece of apple and let my leo lick it. She loves it. It should be totally fine, as long as you don't let your gecko swallow a chunk of the actual apple.
