Okay these little guys now put me up to 76 leos in total. :D
They are both bell albino. The got both parents form Marlo, at Boutique Geckos, and I just couldn’t be happier with my new little hatchlings. So here they and their parents are.

But I do need help on something else. The last babies I had, I just put mealworms in a bowl, and then they got to eat when they where ready. I didn’t even see them shed. But here is what I’m wondering. If all I have is crickets, and they don’t shed for I think 2 days or so. I don’t want to put the crickets in there, and just have them cause stress to the babies. So where do you guys get your feeders. I will most likely get small Superworms. Do you just call the company, and order Superworms? Do you use something else that is small? Should I just order those minimealworm? Thanks for the help.

All you have to do is order some from one of the companys, there are a bunch of them. Or you could also look into breeding your own. I breed mine and they seem to be better than any I have ever bought. Plus you are able to have many sizes for all of your geckos.

Wow, she's holding her weight great so far this season. If I didn't know better I'd be calling that baby on the left a snowbell almost. Definately would like to see pics of her later on.
Hmm, what I do is wait until the babies have thier first poo, because then they've shed already. I buy mini mealies when hatchlings start and put them in a bowl for the babies. It sort of works out as the babies grow the mealies grow. If you're feeding crickets right now look for the smallest ones in the lot, or just do a small order of baby crickets to last until your hatchlings are eating bigger ones or bigger mealies. You could also start breeding your own mealies too. I have a small lot of tiny mealies/beatles etc, but no way enough to last the season. Maybe by next year, but then I plan to switch feeders so...

Yeah, I just took that pic. I think she is done for the season, laid the last clutch a while ago, and doesn’t seem to be developing any more. She really didn't seem to loose any weight at all thought out the season though.

Other than that, thanks everybody for your nice comments, and help on the feeding. I was a little worried about that.
