    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

hey my leopard gecko was raised on crickets and would occasionally eat mealies. well i have switched staple food to mealies and he will not eat them, i don;t think he reconizes them as food does any one got some tips to help my feed him?
 
Try mixing your new food with the old food. SOmetimes a gradual shift is what is needed instead of a big change. Or try feeding in a container that only has the gecko and the meal worms, this way all attention is given to the worms and not climbing around on things and what not.

If all else fails try putting the tip of the mealworm inside his/her mouth so he/she gets the idea that it's food. I had to do that with one of my geckos and no she eats them on her own.

Good luck, hope you can get your leo to eat...
