This is my first gecko and i am loving it ^_^
i have had her for about a year and she is only about a year and 2 months.
i currently feed her around 5 lightly dusted mealworms every 2 days.
she is slightly overweight (have a look at my post in the health and medications section if you would like a pic)
im really not sure how much to feed her so i would love as much feedback as i can get.
:)

Most of my gals and guys that look a bit chunky get fed every 5-10 days. I feed them 5-10 mealworms depending on how chunky they are. I make sure I weigh them once a month or so to make sure they haven't lost more than a gram or two in that time. Most of them barely lose any weight. They're serious survival machines...lol
