Hey guys, I recently got a leopard gecko named Faith. She is a rainwater albino enigma. On her second day, i hand fed her 6 small crickets. She is pretty small at the moment, probably a bit younger than juvenile. Today, I fed her 4 crickets and a piece of a nightcrawler. On a different forum, I was told that nightcrawlers are okay and I gave her one to see if she would like it. She walked up to it, licked it, and ate it. I tried to give her another nightcrawler after that, but she licked it then walked away. Maybe because she licked the guts that were hanging out rather than the skin of the worm.
All the feeding done was hand fed. Occasionally I dropped a cricket in front of her to see if she would go for it. I have some questions. How much should i feed her?. Also, is it possible for me to hand feed her vegetables if she would take them? Maybe lettuce and other soft vegetables? Maybe if i boiled them? This one will sound very stupid, but I was once eating bread and i felt like maybe i can feed it to my gecko, is that okay? My gecko has a very good feeding response and took from my hand the first time I tried.
So yeah, my gecko seems to be doing good and the urate is white, i believe that means she is hydrated.
Thanks for any help
