I would feed it a variety. Like meal worms and crickets. But I would feed it more crickets than meal worms. And it is a good idea to have the pet store dust them because the powder has calcium in it and your gecko really needs that and other nutrients. I wouldn't put more in the cage than it would eat in one sitting because the ones that are left could bite your gecko ( they get hungry) I have had geckos before and I would feed them like 4 crickets or 4 meal worms a day. It just depends on how much they can eat. You can always take the ones out that don't get eaten and keep them in a seperate container until the next feeding.

One to two times a day. Crickets ARE best. Dust them with vitamin and calcium powder so that he/she gets the nutrients it needs! Don't put more in the cage than it will eat at one feeding. :-)

meal worms are good but they are very rich. Live crickets are the best, since yours is an adult the large crickets will fill him faster.
