what should you feed?

What should you feed newly hatched baby geckos after their first hatch?
I've heard mealworms because trying to catch crickets can be stressful, and I've heard other things and would like to know.

I prefer to use mealworms for breeding seeing as they are relatively cheap and they a good staple food source, as for the older geckos I give them treats of locusts a few times a week.

oops, first shed not first hatch, a gecko can't hatch twice....


thanks for the input Sean

Ours get dubia roach nymphs that we put into dishes that they cannot get out of.

They eat them right away for us as soon as they shed for the first time.

I just feed mealworms to my hatchlings.

Mealworms are the best main stable for their diet.

Been feeding mine dubia nymphs since they were born. My first hatchling weighed 14g at her 1month b-day.

well, I can't have dubia nymphs because my mom says so. I guess I'll stick with the mealworms and thanks everyone!
