Offer two appropriately sized insects for every inch of a leopard gecko’s total length. A meal every other day is fine. Example: a 4-inch-long gecko would receive eight mealworms three to four times a week. I Make sure to gut-load and dust the insects with calcium and vitamin powder before feeding. Here is a great video on how to feed your gecko: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqcGMIqZgo4 Hope this helps. Best wishes!
