feeding ????

[snakewrangler89]

i have heard so many different opinions about feeding a 5 inche long leopard gecko. some say 3 4 or 5 a day and some say feed it till it wont eat no more. What is the best way to get him big enough for the breeding season

3, 4 or 5 what?

A five inch gecko is still pretty small...just feed it to make sure the tail is nice and fat and that it doesnt look skinny. Id say a 2 dozen crix over the whole week along with some other worms if it will take them...babies should be fed everyday and everything should also be dusted with D3 calcium powder...they will get bone disease if not..
