I was wondering if my leopard geckos could eat organic peach baby food....and if not what other fruits can they eat??

btw- Leopard Geckos can and DO eat fruit & vegetables...thats one of the reason you feed crickets fruit and vegetables. SO PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER IF YOU ARE GOING TO SAY THEY DON"T EAT FRUIT!! (I really just don't want to hear it.)

Actually they do eat fruit a lot of the time.
And Organic Babyfood only has the fruit and vitamin c in it. So when its ORGANIC it does not have added ingredients.

Foods Crickets (canned ones too), pinkies, mealworms: Even little Leopard Geckos will eat non-living prey. This makes them very easy to care for. A frozen pinkie per week helps keep them in the “pink.” However, make sure you thoroughly thaw it, and make sure it is fresh. Dead pinkies start decomposing very rapidly. Leopards will also eat the canned lizard foods. Get yours eating the pelleted foods as soon as possible. Supplements Calcium and vitamins, calcium chips for females Dust your crickets (lightly) before feeding them to your Leopard Geckos. Supplements: Because their bones grow so much, Leopard Geckos need calcium supplements on their insects. The calcium supplement should also include vitamin D3 so they can assimilate the calcium. Some breeders give them a small dish containing the calcium/vitamin supplement. Females need it to make egg shells. Others use a calcium substrate. Others warn against small particle substrate which they often eat in search of calcium. Sand can theoretically clog up their digestive system.

It is crested geckos that eat fruit baby food, not leopard geckos. Leos need insects only. I'm sorry you don't want to hear it, but you need to learn more about the differing species. What crikckets eat is not the same as what geckos eat...that's like saying we should eat grass because that is what cows eat.

they couldn't because of the fruits and vegtables because they don't eat fruits and vegtables they ear crickets, If your saying that they eat the same thing as crickets thats like saying we eat the same thing as dogs or cats, kibble. Also if they did eat it they would most likely get sick because of the baby food ingredients that are put in to suport the babys dietary need.
