    Gecko fasting?

    Well, I'm not planning on fasting a gecko on a regular basis. It's just if I happen to go on a vacation for a full 7 days. I won't have anyone to feed the mealworms to the lizard. Could I leave him without food for a week 2-3 times a year? If not, I'll have to find someone to do it while I'm away.....

    Not sure about this but what would happen if you left worms in a dish for him? Would he just gorge himself lol?

    It's not the best idea. I'm not sure what gecko you have. I have a leopard gecko. I feed him every day beside Sat/Sun. I just went on vacation last week. I got my uncle to feed him two times in that week.

    I was talking about leopard geckos(sorry I didn't mention it). I'll probably get someone to do it, I was just wondering.
    Thanks for the replies!
