    Na,she didnt eat last night,maybe in the dish i should put newspaper so she can hear them better?

    I'd give her Vitamins 3 or 4 times a week and Calcium,the other days.

    Nah, newspaper would probably just be a pain. I'm sure she can hear them, they have pretty good hearing and smell. The calcium should actually be given more often than the vitamins. So calcium 3-4 days a week, or just keep it in there in a bowl/jar lid/something, and give vitamins, at the most, 2 times a week. Maybe try putting a mealie in her hidey place or putting one next to the bowl so she knows where they come from.

    Is her tail still squishy and fat? :) If so, she's fine. They can go for a little while on the fat in their tail.

    If I use Calcium w/o D3 4 days a week and Vit w/ D3 two days a week,what about the last day?

    Her tail is fat and squishy.

    Well, let's see:

    Calcium- Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday There's 4 days out of the week.

    Vitamins- Tuesday, Thursday, or you could do Monday, Friday, so she would be getting the vitamins as well as the calcium.
    Just be sure to mix it up so she isn't getting calcium 4 days in a row or vitamins 2 days in a row. Ya know what I mean?
    Does that help some? It helps me to write it all out like this. You should be good to go, and it seems like she's a fat and happy gecko.

    It doesn't take long, maybe a day or so. Just make sure that humid hide is nice and damp so she gets all of the skin off of her little toesies :) Let us know how it goes.
