we have6 adult leopard geckos,
2 males 1 weighing 128grams ,he has lost weight and the other 101 grams.
we have 2 3 year old females 1 is 100g and the other is 83 grams,
we also have 1 2 year old and she is now 92 grams
then there is our 9 month baby and she weighs 57 grams
can any body tell me if these weights sound about right or what the average weight of geckos should be
thanks in advance for any replies

I hope your males are giant leopards! If they are fat they won't mate as readily as if they were a bit leaner. My females are between 68g & 75g and I'd say they are the perfect breeding weight.

I have a small male who is healthy but has a small appetite. He weighs 55g! :roll: He's a very fussy feeder though.

How much do you feed them? Adults every other day? I feed my adults every other day with approx 6 dusted crix.

65-80g is about spot on i'd say. See what other replies you get.

Agree with Kerry, much above 80-90g for a non Tremper Giant is on the heavy side

Trempers however have been know to excede 180g.

general rule, check the width of the tail, much more than the width of the neck and your pet is 'fat'.

Wow, that does sound weighty compared to mine - he's a 3 year old normal and weights 78g.
