Do you feed your gecko every day or every other day?

I feed mine every other day. About 15-16 medium sized mealworms. Is there a difference between giving him 7 mealworms daily or 15 mealworms every other day?

I feed mine as much as she'll eat any day she's up to eating (so almost every day).

I used to feed mine everyday, then cut it down to every other day as she got older, but now she eats every other 2 days because she just doesn't feel like eating every other day. She used to be a pig, but I guess she isn't anymore. She's still chubby though xD

I feed mine everyday, and they've gotten used to the schedule it seems. As when I get home from work, they're often by the glass waiting for food.

It can all depend on the Leo. some of mine eat daily, my male eats everyother or every 2 days. It also depends on what they eat. Dubias VS mealies VS supers.

If your feeding 15 medium mealies everyday...why not change to something a little larger like giant mealworms or supers...then you will only feed a couple of worms every day instead of 15!! Consolidate!! :)

I feed the babies and the juvies every day. At this time of year I feed the adults every other day, except when the breeding females give me the "hungry look" when I go by in which case they get fed as well. In the fall to spring I feed the adults every 3rd day and some don't even eat that often.
