I have two babyish geckos. Ive kept a variety of inverts before but these are my first foray into animals with closed circulatory systems outside cats and dogs. when i got them they were walking a bit shaky and so i beefed up calcium and as of yesterday they seem more vigorous and their tales are nice and fat. but i opened my cricket enclosure and there was like an overnight burst of mold and ive no idea how many of those crickets fed on that. those crickets will still be fine for my Ts but for a reptile?! will they be okay to skp a night on food? they are still a bit too small for anything but tiny waxworms and the store was out when i last went. any advice appreciated.

They should be fine. Consider ditching the wax worms. Also, your geckos may be able to eat larger crickets than you think. I have fed pretty young hatchlings on 1/2" or larger crickets. The really tiny ones are very hard for them to catch.
