My geckos are loving the silkworms, but this time the ones that were sent to me are very large and I am afraid they could choke. Could I cut them in half and feed? The geckos I am feeding are Adults (55-75g)

I don't imagine it would be a problem to just feed them whole since my juvie leos eat full sized super worms without any problem and the silkworms are so soft.

I'm just a little nervous about feeding them whole asvsomebare about 3" long. I do agree they are soft. I've been feeding the biggest to my bluetongueskinks.

Give the BTS more silkworms, haha. Mine goes nuts for them. ^_^

But yes, as long as they aren't wider than the space between the eyes, you could definitely cut in half if you can stomach it.
