at what age you started feeding superworms to your geckos. and how many times a week you feed them the superworms please. i got a baby gecko and im new just want to know how to feed her superworms in the future.
are those meal worms (beetle larva) if they are u should cut their heads off first, otherwise the worm can eat its way out once it's inside! (apparently)
Meal worms are herbivores, they are not equipped well to eat through flesh, there is a very slim chance of this happening. If maggots are used instead they are carnivores, they usually only eat dead material, but they are far more likely to eat their way out of the lizard. With maggots it would be a good precaution to cut the heads, but with meal worms it is not truly necessary.
You should really consider taking those Geckos off that sand. Even if it's "calcium sand", they can still die from it. What happens is that it gets stuck in their system and they can't digest it. It turns into a sort of cement. Picture this: you're on a beach, and you have the dry sand which seems ok, but then when you add water, it turns to muck. That's what happens in your geckos system. Consider putting your gecko on slate, clean and cheap.
Source: My own leopard gecko, and LOTS of research.
Correction(s): I meant to say slate tiles, but ran out of room. My gecko is on tiles right now (like you'd use in a kitchen, or outside). They only cost me a few bucks each, and to clean it I can just wash them.
You are absoluely right, I had my leo in sand cause I didnt know any better, suddenly he stopped eating and I didnt know why... I had his temps right, my set up is great, then I found out about how bad sand is. I cleaned all the sand from his tank and put down white paper towels, and voila, he had blue sand in his diahrrea. After feeding him meal worm and apple sauce mush for 5 weeks, he finally started eating on his own again yesterday! I thought i was gonna lose him :( but he is ok now :D
My leopard gecko escaped her cage and then I found her 9 months later... I searched my room up and down and then she just popped up in the middle of my floor... I tried to save her but she passed away :(

I don't want to sound like a jerk or anything but those leopard geckos look a little on the thin side, you should try feeding them a little bit more, they should look a little fatter and then they'd seem perfect. Awesome video though! Kudos.
how much would a container ( like the one you have for example) and 1 or 2 geckos cost? Plus about how much will food cost and how much food does it need for about a year and what will it eat?? Thanks for answering.
well i have a 10 gallon which is about twenty dollars alone the cage. the geckos are about 19.99(at my petco) and the worms are about 1.99 for 25 of them(at my petco) and you need the sand subrstrate which is about 5 bucks so overall maybe one gecko with a descent home and some food is about 50-60 bucks. the little things add up.
ITS IN MY OPINION, for the ppl that are asking how much do they cost, those ppl should not be getting lizards... You need to do your research before buying any animal!!!
exactly lol i have to do research for my friends because they arnt taking care of their animals correctly (i have a ball python who is in perfect health)
Not sure as these are not mine. Check out the new video I have just uploaded and that can lead you to the answer. If it is not showing up yet give it a few minutes as I literally just uploaded it.
Are you serious! you wanna pay for these ugly devil reptiles? man in my home country we had loads of them and i used to hit them with my slippers and some people even shoot them with air guns. i hate them and they are shit bug-eating reptiles;-)
wow, you are ignorant. go ahead and kill them all, and let me guess, you'll complain like shit when your country is overrun with countless bugs infest your "home country".
No love, loads of geckos in Iraq and they are the Grey ones... and yes! we wear slippers and flip-flops in Iraq.
Actually, the old people are saying that the geckos are demoniac creatures and that's why they kill them. I'm not superstitious but i believe them to some extent, try to take off your clothes in front of a gecko and see how he will stare at you as if it is a human, its creepy thing and that's why people are killing them in different ways including sprayin them with petrol.
I understand that cultures kill different animals that other cultures view as pets or even gods.
But I must say though that "try to take off your clothes in front of a gecko and see how he will stare at you as if it is a human, its creepy thing and that's why people are killing them" is just a strange reason to kill anything in my opinion of course.
To be honest the ones you have here in this video are far more acceptable-looking than the ones we have, they are grey and can grow to scary sizes.
The other reason why i think they are dirty is that they only live in the manholes and deserted buildings. To be fare to them i say the only useful thing they do is they eat mosquitoes and other harmful insects.
I'm not much of an Iguana fan myself. I don't think they are worth their maintenance in my opinion. I used to own one but ending up selling it about 6 years ago. The only pet I ever got rid of.
nice man. oh hey you have nixie an african grey? i just got my blue conure. any tips to get him talking i wouldent love him less if he doesnt say a peep. but i would like him to say more than watcha doing, raven "old owner" and sean i am sean, and gimmie a beer. i would love some tips bro.
Just spend time with him working on only a few words at a time (but not in the same session). Reward him when he makes any noise resembling that word, even if it is pretty far off. But really a bird will say the words the he wants to say. I notice our bird is more talkative when she is one room away from us but can see us. That's when we can tell what words she is working on.
Depends on what morph you get. There are so many of them! But generally $25-$250. They are very docile and feel awesome. In my opinion a great choice of pet assuming you do your homework on them of course :o)
tell ur friend to tell the people he is watching those for not to feed sueperworms because they have way harder shells and if they dont killl them when they swallow them they can eat their way out of the stomach
Just so you know I did some research on this after your comment. It seems that many top breeders actually use them as their primary source of diet. Those same breeders also claim this is just a myth.
Actully the exoskeleton of a superworm is much softer than the mealworm. And mealworms and superworms really cant eat out of your leopard gecko's stomach. If you are really cautionous. Feed your leopard gecko a mealworm/superworm and if you hear a *CRUNCH* it will be in insect heaven :D
