how much does it work out feeding 1 crested gecko a week, or if you have 4 how much does that cost a week or a month, or any ruff guesses of how long it would take to get thought the 1.2kg tub with 4 crested geckos.

hope that makes sense Aidan

well when i used to feed CGD (its become hard to come by lately) it took my gecko about a month or two to get through a 50g tub.....my guess it that 4 geckos would consume 1.2kg if my maths is good in or around 4-6 months i think Embarassed

anyone got a better idea ?

i worked it out 50g a month per lizard it would last 6 months
but could last longer if its between 1-2 months
i recon about £1 a week to feed four and i breed roaches so there free

should be a good supply of CGD now, looks like the import issues have been sorted.

As for bulk buying the 1.2 kg tubs, I wouldn't unless you are able to use them within 4-6 weeks as it can go stale Wink

Once opened to the air (oxygen) it starts to affect it, no idea in the scientific nature of it all but do know that it's not as fresh as when you first opened it Wink
