Ah
Then if you wanted you could do every 3rd feeding
You dust with
Just to prevent any possible mbd
Since my aunt and uncle pay for the supplies, I can only ask for so much
Mbd is a greater threat than overdose
Ahh
I get you
One more suggestion
She does love her worms though
I wouldn’t use pure sand as a substrate
It’s very loose and easily swallowed by accident
When chasing a cricket
It’s a very gradual buildup
That can cause impaction
If you wanted you could do a sand mix
Sand/organic top soil sand/ ecoearth
Esc
It’s not a big deal
If you tong feed or bowl feedb
Yeah. I get that a lot. I've owned 4 Leo's, including kakarot and none of them are the sand. Also, that's part of the reason we feed every couple of days, so the sand that she may ingest can pass safely
She hates tongs
ah
And she likes to chase her food
I spent a few months training my leopard and leachie gecko to tong feed insects
My banded and cave gecko refuse to
They’re way to shy
I’m hoping I can squeeze 20 years out of my leopard gecko
I got her at about 1-2 years old. She was under weight and was living on bark substrate. Once I gave her sand, she was soooo active
He has uvb/bioactive enclosure I monitor his weight weekly and give him a variety of diet
So the bitch better live 20 years
Or I will be severely disappointed
lol
Also, I do use calc sand. And I completely remove everything and thoroughly sift and turn the sand about every 6 months. Though I think I need to change the sand out completely and put in fresh
Wow there
Okay
Uh
I highly advise against calci sand
A it’s highly unnatural b it’s the leading cause of impaction c it physically can’t be passed
