how many crickets to feed to 2 adult geckos

[Gecksta]

i have two adult northern spiny tailed

 

[Southern_Forest_Drag]

7.234
Seriously there is no "exact" number, id say around 8-12 each.

 

[Gecksta]

is that every night

 

[Southern_Forest_Drag]

depends on variables if your breeding etc. Obviously your not atm so 8-12 crickets each 4x a week.

 

[Gecksta]

that just sounds like a lot

 

[Southern_Forest_Drag]

Not really, its expensive if you dont bulk buy though or breed your own food, Its about 3/4 of a tub of crickets per week per adult gecko (i think havn't bought tubs for a long time not sure how many you get any more). Although i dont suggest you use a staple of just crix.

i was thinking of breeding woodies how many of them per gecko

 

[Southern_Forest_Drag]

Woodies have a better nutritional value so i would recommend them over crickets also much easier to breed infact they thrive on neglect!!! but still the amount wouldnt be much different still around 7-10 per adult gecko 3-4x per week.

i feed my spiney tail adults 1/3 adult size crickets and they get 2-3 each night, 8-12 per gecko is too many im afraid , they wont eat them

Mine demolish at least 25 a week, roughly 8 a night x 4 however yours are a size up from what i order although we might order them from different places.

if yours are 25 day old crickets then they are considerably smaller .These are adult spiney tails i wouldnt feed them anything smaller then 1/3 crickets.

 

[Gecksta]

what is 1/3 crickets i feed mine 2 large each every night is that to much or to less
