Having a munch

This is Chutney having his wax worm treat!

Mango wanted more so she tried to nick Chutneys.

Salsa is not keen on wax worms. 

Gecko buffet

A geckos main diet are insects.

In the wild they will hunt out crickets and other bugs. 

They have very good night vision so eating in the dark is easy for them.  Geckos will also eat Mealworms and Pinkies (day old mice)

I feed my gang a mix of Crickets and Mealworms. They are still a bit small to try pinkies as they prefer live food. 

Wax worms

I am giving my gang of Leo's a treat today.

Wax Worms

I give them 3 each once a week. Mango and Chutney love them but Salsa is not interested. 

Due to the high fat content in these little worms they should be only given to geckos as a treat.  They can also be quiet addictive, like sweets are to a child. 

Wax Worms are the larval stage of the Wax Moth.

Chutney up close

This is chutney, he is 4 months.

As you can see he is extremely friendly.
