I saw the thread about how often and unless i overlooked it or something, i didnt see a "how much" thread. Im asking cause im thinking of getting a leopard gecko, some people say they just leave some mealies in the food dish all day or w.e but how many do you leave in/feed your gecko, also just though of it, how many geckos do you have and spend per week of mealies for your leopard.

I have 1 leo. I put 10 mealies in her dish everyday ( because she is still young ). She usually eats 8 in 24hrs. So I put those 2 back in to gutload and replace with 10 more.

yeah that sounds about right 10 ten a day or every other day for my adults unless they eat them all before i finish feeding then I will give them more.

They go through around 10 mealworms per day, big or small depending on your gecko's age/size. Or when I feed superworms, it's 1 superworm per day. Or dubia roaches, it's 1 per day. Crickets, probably 2 a day. (of course this is all basing on you feeding them appropriately sized feeders)

Adults have the tendencies to skip eating for a day or two at a time. So they aren't always fed everyday, but I keep their dish full anyway in case they want to eat.
