No, if he doesn't eat them within a day, take them out of the enclosure. If the leo is not interested in the crickets and the crickets get hungry, they will start to nibble on your gecko and you don't want that.

Especially if its still the first week he may not eat as many as he did before he came to you because he's still adjusting.

You can also try feeding the gecko by holding the cricket with a pair of tweezers. This solves the probelm of the cricket getting away, and lets the gecko associate you with bringing food.

Hi im so worried my leo still isnt eating and shows no interest in food wat so ever. She is loosing a bit of wait and wen she walks she seems all shakey.
Please get back
Glen

You can also try feeding in a smaller separate container, something where the crickets don't have anywhere to hide.

You are going to have to give us some more info on your set-up. You might want to start a separate thread on your own, but we need to know temps, tank size, what all you have in it, what you have been trying to feed, how old she is, how long you have had her, what kind of substrate, any vitamins or supplements you are using.

Until you get back to us with that info for the short term you can try some turkey or beef, or other meat form of baby food, and just add a drop onto her nose and see if she licks it off.

My geckos seems to like licking marmalade and since she isnt eating crickets I have tried this and she likes it. Is it ok?

Leopard Geckos are insect eaters, not fruit eaters. Jelly is not what they need to be eating.
It would be like you trying to live on nothing but sugar.

I have tryed baby food and she licks it off me finger but I really want to get her eating normally. This friday I will have had her for 3 weeks could she still be adjusting and that to her new home.
Temps of tank are 30 at one end and 23 at the other.
I have calci sand
A dry hide
A moist hide with spagehetti moss
Another little cave thing
I drop temps slightly at the night
the tank is about 2 ft 4 and she has clean water twice a day.
please get back to me :P
Glen

Ditch the Calci Sand! That stuff is dangerous!
You need to raise your temps. Your cool end is ok but you should have a basking area of from 29C-35C
At this stage I would go for the higher end of the range.
After 3 weeks the gecko has had plenty of time to settle in and should be pigging out!
Your comment that she is losing weight and shaking when she walks concerns me. You need to have a vet examine her

Defiantly keep up with the baby food. Meat baby food, not fruit or vegetables. You need to get something in her even if you don't like having to do it, you want whats best for your animal right?
