Waxworms are nutritionally quite useless, the are extremely fatty and simply lack the vital vitamins and minerals your Leopard Gecko needs to be healthy. With a reputation like ‘gecko crack’, it’s quite clear that waxworms are not ideally suited to be a regular part of your geckos diet. And if you want to remind your adorable pet that he is loved and cared for, the occasional waxworm is great for your gecko. I wouldn’t necessarily say waxworms are good for Leopard Geckos, they are simply an indulgence, like triple chocolate cake. However, their favorite food is one you should possibly reconsider before spoiling your gecko with: Waxworms. The most common diet for a gecko lizard consists of mealworms, crickets, and silkworms. Leopard geckos are insectivores, this means they live solely off insects and cannot eat vegetables or fruits. And that is precisely the problem! These fatty juicy worms are the equivalent of a delicious pizza to these lizards and can be a wonderful treat.
