Too high in fat and possible impaction risk. Not generally recommended. Feed crickets, superworms, phoenix worms, silkworms.

Pinkie mice should only given maybe once a year to females who need plumping up after breeding. They shouldn't be fed to geckos that are healthy and plump. Crickets and mealworms are the main foods for my leopard geckos. You can occasionally give strawberry yogurt (little licks from a spoon) as a treat.

They eat mostly crickets, and some people like to feed them mealworms better, however my friend has a leopard gecko and she feeds it grasshoppers that she catches outside in the tall grass by her house. Mice are not recommended, so it should make about 0%! lol. They have high fat and are hard to digest (the bones). Crickets should be dusted or gut loaded for maximum nutrition, but grasshoppers don't need to be.

no dont think so but leopard geckos have no teeth. I have 1 and he only eats mealworms, locusts, crickets, and water and i put this calcium thing called nutrobal on his worms.
mines a baby and he only eats things up to the size of 1 third of his head.

i don't feed my gecko mice, but i feed him crickets, to get the crickets really healthy i would feed the crickets a slice of potato. you can feed your gecko small crickets, mealworms, silkworms and many more little critters that won't get stuck in his or hers throat.
