Hi there, I apologize for my many questions, I just figured I'd come to a forum and ask instead of driving myself insane trying to figure it out.
First question, I have a leopard gecko and she's about 4 years old. How often should she be eating and how much? She wants to eat every day, and paces until I give her some roaches. She'll eat 15, and still want more. She isn't overly fond of worms, and she has trouble getting crickets unless they're almost dead. So we just feed roaches.
Second question, I've heard a lot of things about the calcium and calcium with d3. Some say the food should be dusted with d3 twice a week, while straight calcium is left in the tank 24/7, someone else said just use the one with d3, others said use multivitamins as well, can anyone clear this up for me?
Last question, one gecko has a semi plump tail, and a pretty big belly. I like to compare her to a fat lazy cat. The other is very skinny and also has a skinny tail. How do I go about plumping up their tails if needed?
(No, I didn't get geckos without knowing anything about them, they were both rescues and I took them because they weren't being fed etc I've been reading everything under the sun for a while now, and I'm still pretty confused.)
This is Moonstone. The one I referred to as a fat cat.
This is Cypress, the one that is a little skinnier.
