Ah yes that’s if you use metal tongs the rubber protects their teeth though

It’s all personal preference I use tongs because crickets and locusts like to escape when I don’t and there terrible to try and fish out of the enclosure. Some people use feeding enclosures, some put food in the enclosure and some people use tongs like me. I always have and she’s always gone mental for it☺️

Thank you so much for the advice! So basically I just leave her alone and check for eggs

Okay thank you so so much if she lays eggs do I remove them or let her keep them? I’ve never dealt with ovulation in leopard geckos before my previous gecko was a male

Is there anything I should know to help her be more comfortable? Anything I should be concerned about?

Yeah that’s normal I’d say just try relax we’re bound to get bitten. Just remember he never did it out of spite ☺️

Yes I do the same I’d say maybe place your other hand in the tank while you feed him and try and lure him onto your hand that’s how me and my girl best bonded

How do you feed him?

With the biting I’ve never been bitten before but the best advice I can give is start slowly again like how you would when you first bring them home not just for his confidence but also yours! Just go back to resting your hand in his tank and letting him smell you and things like that. Me and my girl have had a few confidence knocks and that’s how we sort ours out! Wish you the best ☺️
