mealies for leos how many is to many

[adam&nikki]

hello i have about 100 meal worms left from a pack i bought awhile ago (back in november ) and i just went tru it and for about 100 meal worms that i want to feed my leos i usally feed crickets to them but i figured meal worms would be good till i get out tommorrow to get more crickets so how many is to many i place 50 in each tank

It depends on how many geckos you have in each tank. I often put 20 in a dish every 1-2 days for 1-2 geckos. The mealies tend to climb out of dishes and hide in the corners so if you put in too many, you will end up with mealie hide and seek.

About 4-7 mealworms a day for each gecko

my adults will eat 4-8 mealies each a day , my 9 month old eats about 10 a day and my rescue is a pig she eats 10-14 a day {or I should say she eats them within 5 minutes each day lol}
but i also feed crickets 2 times a week my adults love to hunt them down.

i have a 7 month old gecko and she will usually eat 15 medium sized mealworms a day

Each gecko is different, I highly doubt one gecko is going to eat 50 mealworms in a matter of days, as long as they can't escape the dish you can put anywhere from 5-20ish mealworms per gecko in the cage. I just put around 20 in the dish letting the gecko eat as much as he/she wants then rotate uneaten worms back into the bin to re-gutload every 2-3 days.
