food!!

Question
Hi Diane, i just ran out of food for my geckos and i won't be able to get it in another 5 or 6 days. Do you think they will be fine? Thy are both big and have plumped tails. However, like i mentioned before, the female is pregnant and i don't know if she will be fine for a couple of days. I recently fed her a pinky last week along with a bunch of mealworms and crickets, dusted and with calcium. She has a very fat tail. Do you think they will be okay? Is it true you can feed them grapes? Thanks

Answer
HI Chris,
5-6 days is quite awhile for them to go without food....  do you have any bait stores near you?  They carry some mealies and waxies usually... Not good to let a gravid female go long without food.
I have one that will lick at watermelon..I've heard that some will even eat pieces of fruit....
With leos, they generally won't eat anything that isn't moving...with things like babyfood chicken, they may lick at it..to see what it is, some may even bite at it if they decide they like the taste...
I would try to get some proper food for them before the 5-6 days...
