keep in mind breeding is very expensive and it takes lots of time work and patience too....research on leopard geckos by looking up caresheets like this one http://www.repticzone.com/caresheets/906.html heres a caresheet by a really awesome leo owner(i think she breeds leos too) im guessing youre talking about leopard geckos right? they make great pets but if you do decide to breed keep 1-2 leos at least for 1-2 years so you have experience with feeding them taking care of them and all that stuff...hoped i helped a little..~~megs~~

i gave you some caresheets on my pm youll be able to find out what they eat on those....crickets,silkworms,lobster roaches,superworms for adults(NOT super mealworms),mealworms,and waxworms can be a treat at the most only feed these 3 of them a week but they can be addicting so 1nce every 2 weeks is what im going to do.......~megs~

I feed mine crickets and mealworms usually.But superworms,waxworms,pinky mice,silk worms...etc, make good treats!
Many leo owners keep a dish in the tank with mealworms all the time.This is what I do, and Bear can help himself to it.
Don't forget to dust your feeders with calcium at least once a week.You can buy calcium especially for reptiles in a pet store.

baby leos food should be dusted 5 days a week and adults 1nce every few days...multivitamins 1nce a week and d3/calcium 1nce a week too...also keep a calcium dish in the tank...pinkies shouldnt be fed because they can carry parasites and give them to the leo arent nutritious and can cause impaction...just my 2 cents..silkworms are a great staple the best feeder and can fatten up sick leos and most leos love them...

My leo is an adult, so I only dust his feeders once a week, but I do keep a calcium dish in there at all times.
The leo breeders I know feed pinkies to gravid females for extra nutrients and have never had any problems!!!!!
