Hey guys. I have two fat tail geckos. One I got two weeks ago, and he's
about 5 months old, maybe more. When I first got him, I happened to have some crickets, so I fed him those. He ate about 6 or 7 in a couple days. After that, I decided to try mealworms, because that is my main feeder for all my geckos, and I rarely have crickets. He would not eat the mealworms. It's been almost 2 weeks since he ate those crickets, and he hasn't eaten since. I don't
know what I should do... Should I just give up, buy some more crickets, and give him those, or should I just wait until he's really hungry enough that he'll eventually eat the mealies? I just don't want to starve him to death, but I also don't want him to only eat crickets, since that's a MAJOR inconvenience for me.
Just a note: the temps are a bit lower, because I'm cooling most of my geckos for breeding.
Thanks in advance.
