Do you watch your Leo Eat?

[JohnJohn]

I never tire of watching them. They are so damn cute.

I watch mine too. I have always been wondering why they do the tail shake?

Mine often chases the crickets into the hide and I see her tail Shaking from outside the hide.

since one of my girl's cant really aim, i had to watch every single of my babes finish their mealie and crickets. i dont like it when their food is running around the viv.

depends, some i gott a watch them eat, cause they wont eat out of a dish so i gotta put em in one by one and make sure theres no run aways in the tank! lol.

We watch every time. Partly cause she's still young and we can keep track of how much she eats...mostly cause its just fun to watch.

How can you NOT watch 'em eat? It's like a safari. :laugh4:

I definitely enjoy watching o.p. eat. I love the little tail rattle he does as he's preparing to strike. So far he's only taken to the baby cricks I feed him. Not so keen on the mealies I place in a dish for him.. he's still pretty shy though, so I'm hoping he'll open up to other things one he starts growing up.

The tail thing is the best :smitten:

I do love the leo tail shake before striking. I keep trying to get a bunch of them filmed to put into a video. Will share it once I complete it.

i like to watch mine eat to its pretty cool sometime mine go for the same locust and sometimes bite each other but they never hurt each other witch is gd lol

My oldest refuses to eat unless I feed her with tongs. My littlest only eats from a dish, he refuses to "hunt". It drives me nuts, but yeah I watch them eat hehe

I voted "no" because I don't sit there and watch until they get hungry but the main cage is in my living room that we walk past all the time, so I see them eat all the time. I use to watch them but for the most part as long as I see them all near the food dish at some point in time then I am happy.

All of the hides and big rocks in my gecko's cage are close enough together for him to climb from one to the other without touching the ground - I'll drop mealworms around on top of each and he'll run around and pounce on them. Great fun to watch.

I always keep eye on my Gecko because What if crickets bite my gecko or He would just be full and ingore them then i will remove crickets and throw them in my turtle tank to eat. But it's fun to watch him doing Catish hunting! Pounce and Snaps and Cute eys on crickets! Rofl But I always Watch over My gecko aall times. it's like He knows me. Whatever i give him to people to hold it. He will painc! Because everytime he go in another hand he licks hand. didnt know who this is. He just runs off! I hold him it makes him calm down. He gets scared of my sister and others.
