Hi, I haven’t forgotten just got myself 2 baby gargs and they are gorgeous. They are feeding off my finger so I am sure they are eating although they are totally uninterested in tiny crickets. Is the gecko food a complete meal with enough calcium etc? Also just moved them to a slightly bigger viv (will go bigger again when they grow) - also prepared to separate if they turn out to be 2 males etc. just wanted to know though if everything is ok as they seem unable to ‘stick’ to the glass and not to steady on the plant (bio tank). They seem to stay on the moss pole and don’t seem to have any lick marks in the food. Just after any advice or tips to give them the best care possible. Thanks

Congrats on the gargs. Often they don't seem to be eating at all (I have some gargs and cresties I have almost never seen eating) but they end up doing OK, How tiny are the crickets? Even a baby garg can manage a 1/2" cricket and if you have really teeny ones they may be too small for them to notice. I bred gargs for a few years and someone advised me to introduce them to crickets by holding them and pushing a cricket at their mouth. They would automatically bite them and got used to eating them. It's worth a try.
