    You could also put the vitamin powder right on the geckos nose. It should lap it up.

    Oddly, my dragons won't eat salad with calcium on it. It's funny finding these little personality traits....and sometimes frustrating.

    Keep us updated if you find a good working solution. I have a girl off feed right now that's starting to lose weight so I'll need to figure out something for her. She's never been a good eater but always had a fat tail. Her tail is starting to look thin. I tried roaches, mealworms and supers. She won't have any of it.
