Don't feed anything bugs from your yard if you or your neighbors use pesticides or lawn/plant fertilizers.
Most pet stores sell meal worms.

You should not feed them anything from outside. Your leopard gecko can go almost a month without food, so just try to get food as soon as possible.

Don't feed it anything for your yard. If they have pestacide or anything like that it can kill your gecko. Geckos don't need to be fed every day. They store fat in thier tail and can live off of that. I only feed my leopards every 2 days.

The question is not "what to feed the leopard gecko" it is

Any grasshoppers? I substituted crickets with grasshoppers for a while when I was in the same situation. Moths are good too. Good luck!

We give our leo mealworms, you should be able to find them anywhere that fishing supplies are sold.

start picking up rocks in your backyard and catching the bugs under them. It's easy and its they are free and plentiful.

Lettuce, or mealworms. But you need to get more crickets.
