Leo Weight Problem

So ive had my leopard gecko Sandy for about 6-7 months and she doesn't seem to be able to pass 25 grams, I feed her everyday large or sometimes giant mealworms(with calcium), her warm side is high eighties to 90 with the cool side being around 80. Please Help:confusd:

Your temperatures sound ok. Giant mealworms are probably too big for a gecko that size. At that age she should be a voracious eater. How many mealworms does she get at each feeding?

i don't always feed her giant just sometimes when I run out of large and she usually has about 7-13 in her bowl

Be patient and consistent. Do not try and feed and get her heavier as fast as possible. In the end you will just end up with a fat and unhealthy gecko. If this is in attempts to get her ready for breeding you will only hurt yourself in the future. Keep fresh worms in her bowl every 3-4 days with proper supplements and she will gain weight naturally and in a healthy way. Be patient, she will get there. Good luck.

well gamechanger just noticed she has 2 large bulges which would mean she is a male, the thing im worried about is she has grown only 5 grams since ive had (him) which is almost 6 months!

*update* Sandy is currently 38 grams! I wanna thank you for all the help :)
