Ok guys,
just wondering if any of you can help me i have had my gecko (bam bam) for about 1 month now im not sure how old she was when i got her. Im feeding her 4/5 small hoppers once every day. Currently i am not feeding her meal worms or wax worms etc. She is 36 grams and im just wondering if you think that is ok? or do u think im feeding her to much or to less, or should i cut down on the hoppers and change her diet a bit anyway tell me what u think. I would very much apreciate it, also how old do you think she is?
Cheers
Here are some pictures of her

How much did she weigh when you got her? Has she gained weight?
I would say that you should not feed her any less. Are you dusting the crickets?

Also, how small are the crickets? Why not give her large ones?

She looks like 4 or 5 months old to me, and yea...why are you giving her small crickets? You could definitely do large ones at this point. You could do superworms too, to switch her diet up a little :). I'd say about 3 maybe 4 supers every other day would be fine. I try to keep things interesting, I feed every other day (unless they are begging, I have a few that come up to the front to see what I've got :) ) some days they get 3 or 4 supers, other days its 6 or 7 large crickets, they usually always have a small bowl of mealies, some dont bother, others clear their bowl, and also I throw in an occasional wax worm or two. Variety....it's the spice of life :) and keeps 'em healthy. :)
