I know they are good for bearded dragons, inparticularly the best for them but, are they extremely good for leopard geckos as well?

Hi! My leopard gecko only ate them once, and that was in Orlando in the hotel room after I bought her at a show, so I think she hadn't eaten in days. As soon as we got home...no deal. I do know leos like to hunt down their food, and I've had spotty luck getting her to eat out of a bowl. :?

They are not harmful to leos, but I would feed your Leo something else as a daily staple. How old is your Leo? If you take a look at his poop after he has had the Phoenix worms, see if there are whole worms in there. One or 2 whole worms is ok, I always figure they ate one too many to digest, but if you see a few then they may just be too hard to digest. You could also surf gecko forums and see what you find there.

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
