When I had just one leopard gecko. He was like the most cost-efficient pet out there feeding only 6-7 large superworms a month! Real sweetie pie.


So now that I have 6 (possible to increase after saturday) leopard geckos with different personalities and feeding behaviors. I decided to categorize them just for fun (and because I have the free time to do so lol)


1). The Body Builder - Only eats roaches and crickets. Will not even bother to lick any worm near them.


2). The Vacuum Cleaners - will eat everything that moves. Your fingers, ears, hair and nose included.


3). The Taunt-Me-Nots - Those that come out with just their heads to grab a prey and hide inside again.


4). The Slob - Prefers a worm only diet. Waxworms, superworms, mealworms, you name it worm


5). The Princess - 'spoonfeeders' those that eat only with tongs.


6). The Pauper - those that prefer their food being thrown or dropped to crawl on the ground than eat on a dish.


7). I'm on Atkin's Diet - those that eat once a week


8). The Mean Girls - They eat once a week and prefers to be tong-fed. Usually the skinny and skittish ones


9). Attitude in the making / Divas - they pretend to be all nice, eating out of your hand, the tongs, etc. The next day, you're nobody


10). I Hate You. I Hate The World / Emo - They will look at the prey, they may lick it then turn their heads away and pretend to sleep and you never existed lol

Cheech & Chong are Vacuum Cleaners for sure! They will eat anything I offer them. Mealworms, Superworms, Waxworms, Crickets, and the dehydrated and canned varieties of the above. I haven't tried Dubias yet, but I don't doubt they would go for it. There isn't much they will turn down... Or anything I've found actually. LOL

Chima is too new to know. I have only gotten her to eat 2 crickets in the 2 days I've had her but I am happy she is eating. I am keeping my fingers crossed she is accepting of worms! Crickets get on my nerves! Haha

Okay so if you've read my 2nd statement, apparently the possibility is now a reality lol. Just won my 7th leo via our local exotic group xmas party haha!

The thing is tiny like 3 months old. Haven't kept a leo this young yet. This'll be a challenge :D

Congrats on your new addiction! Oops, I meant addition, but I don't think auto correct is too far off with the addiction part. (Just teasing!)

Love this post hahaha! I have two slobs and one pauper, the one pauper hates her food on the dish; what I do is place mealworms in the dish for one of my female slobs and another on the ground for the pauper. Apparently they don't like being separated from each other so I've decided to house them together.
