My leopard gecko's eating varies. Is this normal for juveniles?

Question

I am feeding my leopard gecko every day and he sometimes he eats nothing like only twice that happened but what really worries me is sometimes he eats 15 mealworms!

Juveniles should be fed daily. they can be little eating machines. s long as he is eating, don't worry. Offer crickets and dubia roaches as well as mealworms. Try to get freshly molted mealworms, since they are "softer" and easier for a young gecko to digest. Gut load all prey for 24 hours prior to offering to maximize nutritional value. This can be done by feeding them a high protein baby cereal, tropical fish flakes and fresh fruits/vegetables. You can review gecko care at the link below. http://www.anapsid.org/leopardgek.html
