Instructions
Live Crickets
Purchase live crickets that are about half the size of your gecko's head. Crested geckos are natural hunters and will enjoy hunting live crickets in their cage.
Dust the crickets with calcium powder before feeding to ensure that your gecko is getting proper nutrition.
Drop four to six crickets into your crested gecko's cage every other day.
Baby Food
Mix calcium powder with your choice of baby food.
Drop 1 tbsp. of the baby food and calcium mixture into your gecko's food dish each night.
Use trial and error to determine which flavors your gecko prefers.
Crested Gecko Diet
Mix the powder with water to make a paste. Follow the directions on the package for the correct water-to-powder ratio.
Feed your pet the crested gecko diet two to three times a week.
Clean leftover food from your gecko's dish each day.
