A baby leopard gecko will usually take well to just two or three 1/4" inch crickets a day. Once the animal is reaching adulthood, they do not require a feeding everyday. Four times a week is usually recommended for adult leopard geckos.

Do you feed gecko's crickets everyday?
It depends on the age and species of the gecko in question, as well as the number and size of crickets. My adult male leopard gecko gets 5 or 6 large crickets every other day, but I know several other Leo owners give theird 3 or 4 every day instead. As for other types of geckos, you'll have to research that on your own.
How often do you feed a leopard gecko?
It depends on how old the Leopard Gecko is... Say it was born as a baby maybe about 1 or 2 small crickets every day. When older start putting more in there... Like 3 or 4 so on and so fourth... And if you buy a whole bunch Of food (Crickets) It is only natural for them to die.. What I have found out in my experience, Crickets stay alive longer if u put a Hardly Damp Cotton Ball Where u keep your Crickets. And I HIGHLY recommend you don't keep The Crickets in the bag when you buy them at a Local Pet Store..

How many crickets should you feed your leopard gecko per day?
Offer your juvenile tokay crickets on a daily basis. As many as they will consume in one sitting. Mine will usually eat 4. Adult tokays should be offered crickets every other day as many as will be consumed in one feeding. I have read some report theirs will eat as many as 10 when full grown. I offer mine waxworms twice a week. Wax worms are high in fat content. They should be fed no more then twice a week. On the nights I feed waxworms, I do not feed crickets.

Do you have to feed leopard geckos crickets?
You do not have to feed your leopard gecko just crickets, you can feed your leopard gecko mealworms as a main staple of the diet also. You can also feed your leopard geckos waxworms as a treat, you want to be stingy with these because your leopard gecko can get addicted to the waxworms and not eat anything else. Hope I helped! They will eat just about any small insect when hungry, care should be taken to ensure that they are not able to eat any poisonous insects. Spiders are generally fine, but eating certain caterpillars are most definitely not good for geckos - or any other lizard.
