Hi i was wondering till when do you people feed your geckos everyday?

Does it have to do with its size? age?

I know ive only had mine for almost 3 weeks now and ive been feeding him everyday and every other day i poweder the crix with reptive...

So when should i concider stopping the every day feeding ? next year ? in 2 years ? in a few months ??? im so new lol ...

at the petshop they had told me to feed every other day since he was still not an adult and then to feed every day as an adult but on the net i saw totaly different lol thats when i decided to switch petstore and the other one told me the same as the net everyday for a non adult ... but i never asked for adult ...

I feed my juviniles every day. the adults I feed everyday but if I notice they don't eat everything then I skip a day and let them finish whats in the cage.

Babies are suposed to be fed everyday until they are 3 months old then every other day. With adult I put mealworms or super worms in until they are full then I put them in a dish that they cant get out of and I dont need to feed them for the remainder of the week.

babies should be fed daily as much as they will eat. i cut down to every other day when they are past the "growing like weeds" stage and have gotten a little chubby. once they get to this point they won't eat everyday anyway.
