Five days ago, my house gecko, Glinda, arrived in the mail. I bought her for
roach control, and she is not caged. She likes to hang out on top of my
computer modem or beside it, which is also under a lamp that I keep on all day.
I have a clean water dish for her. I am hoping she will catch some food, but
have not seen her do this. In desperation, I have caught a few roaches and
placed them nearby. There seem to be less of them, but I can't tell if
she is really eating. Short of buying crickets or mealworms, is there anything
else I can do, or other food she might like (babyfood? honey?)
I would prefer not to place her in a tank, as she seems
otherwise content and sometimes goes on a nearby wall. Even though my
home is filled with plants (some under grow lights), she loves my nice warm modem. This is my first gecko pet and I do love her. Help please.
