Mine does the same thing! She is a pig too she always seems to want a mealie, I also have small crickets for my other lil feller and I'll give her the bigger ones as a treat she goes NUTS! lol Great looking gecko.
It's great for me to watch because she has never had mealworms. Her prev owner only fed her crickets once a week. She took to the dish and the worms on the first nite. I still feel shocked when she comes out to eat.
