Can baby leopard geckos be fed just mealworms and some pinky mice when adults?


Answers:
the mealworms are fine and pinkies are good occassionally but not as a steady diet. also try crickets, just put enough crickets in there that your gecko can eat or will eat at one time and supervise while the crickets are in the tank because if left in there too long the crikets will bother the geckos and it's not healthy to your gecko.
go ahead and feed the geckos pinky mice but use the mealworms for fishing
REALLY THE BEST ANSWER IS TO GO TO A LIBRARY,OR LOOK ON LINE,OR JUST BUY A CHEAP BOOK,IT'S REALLY THAT SIMPLE,CONSIDERING ALL OF THE KNOWLEDGE BASES WE HAVE,I KNOW REPTILES,BUT AM NOT THAT KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT GECKOS.I THINK THE ADVICE WILL HELP.GOOD LUCK.
If it likes pinkies then by all means feed that to him or her Mealworms are OK but not as a steady diet. I would suggest going on line and just Google... Care of Leopard Geckos. You should get tons of information. Good Luck
Small crickets and mealworms are excellent food for baby leos. Forget the pinkies--they are too high in fat and can cause impactions. They aren't at all necessary.
