Can a juve gecko eat a horned worm?

[Moe]

?????even if its the smaller one

the smaller one is about the length of 4 waxworms

my juve leopard gecko can eat 4 to 5 waxworms or a bit more

No. That is too large for a juvenile leopard gecko.

Just because a gecko can fit something in it's mouth doesn't mean that it should be eating it.
That thing looks way too big for that gecko to be eating, and I would personally advise against it.

... that's a big difference, how'd you get the different length?

by putting them side by side

look ive seen quite afew posts where oyuve been asking to feed something to your gecko and everyone is going 'no' ... so please just stick to what is recommended and what is right. a few mealworms or crickets if its juvenile. if its sub adult 7-8 mealworms. but waxworms should be used very occasionally.
