    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....

How often should i feed my adult male leo and my adult female leo. I just switched to them and they LOVE them! Just should i feed them 3 every day, every other day?

Thanks.
 
My superworm eaters are offered supers everyday. They usually eat up to 3, males eating more and females eating less. Some days they won’t take any but the next day they are offered more and they nail em’.
 
If they're both full grown adults, I would only feed 2-3 supers every other day. They're pretty fattening, so you don't want your leo to get overweight. I also don't recommend feeding any more than 4 or 5 supers at a time because it will cause your leo to have gigantic poops.

I used supers as a staple for my leos last year. They loved them too, but after about 4 or 5 months being on superworms, they got sick of them. The adults refused them (except for one guy) and the juveniles knew how to pick out the small supers from the mealworms. They were both the same size, so even if I mixed them up in the food boowl, my leos would spit out the supers and just go for the mealworms.
 
A gecko should be good to eat Supers Just as long as they are allright with Large Mealworms, ussually around 25 grams. When it comes to worms, Never start off with Super's though, start off with mealies and if they like mealies, then chances are theyll like supers. I keep Large mealies in my enclosures at all times in a small glazed dish with vitamins or calcium. like so...

. I dont think a gecko could be overfed so I just keep it available at all times, that way they get as big as possible,

Not only that but there’s the chance of regurgitation. Adults usually know how much they can take and will stop when they’ve had enough. Younger juveniles don’t know “how far they can go” so they just keep eating and eating and eventually throw everything up. It’s just the learning cycle.
 
ok, which are we deciding on, 2-3 every other day and 2-3 every day. I dont want my leos to get too fat. the male is 70 grams and the female is 85 (last time i checked was about 2 weeks ago).
 
If they’re that big you can easily go 2-3 every other day. I offer my leos supers everyday even though they might not eat them. I just like giving them the option.
