how do I make my geckos eat worms, but not crickets?

[strigoii]

Some of my geckos just don't want to eat worms. They prefer only crickets. Maybe, someone could give an advise on that topic? It's just that crickets are more expensive in our country and it is sometimes difficult to buy them
Half of my geckos are eating mealworms and superworms, and the other half just loosing their weight and waits for crickets...:main_robin:

keep giving them to them along with the crickets. Slowly decrese the amount of crickets so when they run out of crickets the worms are the only other choice. Adults tend to take to supers better then mealies when trying to switch over to worms. I have all my adults on supers and roaches and all my hatchlings on mealies. when the hatchlings get switched over to an adult tub they get switched to supers and roaches.

i heard that feeding supers for a long term may cause problems with gecko's liver. anyone ever seen any difficulties?

Im not sure about supers, have heard what you are saying but never seen any proof of it.. I feed all my leos mainly mealies, some of them raised on mealies and have nothing but good things to say about mealies, so much easier then cricks.
