I only buy about 30 large mealies for my leo so is it necessary to refrigerate them if they'll only be around for 2 weeks? :main_huh:

Try it without refrigerating them. The worst that could happen is that they are so large they turn into pupae sooner than you're expecting. Then you can make your own mealies.

Mealys for 2 weeks

I would assume that you are feeding your Gecko something other than Mealys.

30 of them would not last two weeks for one of my Gekos. But, then my Geckos are not full adults.

If you do not put them into the frig then, you need to feed them.

If you put them into the frig then, you need to feed them once a week.

If you put them into the frig then, you need to gut load them 12 to 24 hours before you feed them to your Gecko.

So you should probably keep them out of the frig and feed them so that they are always gutloaded.:main_thumbsup:
