I worry to much, questions I still don't have answers to

I was worried about my leo because she wasn't eating but like 1 cricket sometimes 2 and I was worried she wasn't eating well I put her in her cage with 4 crickets, and they are all GONE!

Okay but here are my questions

If a leo is ovulating do they eat less?
How long do they ovulate?
How old do they have to be to ovulate?
How old are they before they start eating everyother day?

If a leo is ovulating do they eat less?

They’ll eat a little less normally.

How long do they ovulate?

Never kept track, I’ve always breed them when they start, but my guess would be about a month…

How old do they have to be to ovulate?

This is more a matter of size than age, I’ve had geckos ovulate as little as 30 grams, but you want them to get up to 45-50 before breeding.

How old are they before they start eating every other day?

I feed mine mealworms everyday until they are 50 grams, then I switch them over to crickets every other day.

Also, isn’t your gecko a smaller gecko? Can you provide pictures? If my memory servers me correctly, yours is too small to be ovulating.

Yup I do believe it was you who said she was too small, I only wanted to ask as learning, I don't plan on breeding her till she get's at least a year old AND over 45 grams just because she is a goober to keep weight on,lol.

Thank you so much for the info I have one more question

How often do they ovulate? Once a year? Or just when they feel it's been "winter" and now spring?
