Like almost all reptiles, leachies can go quite sometime without food. Your leachies eat fruit don't they? They could live of fruit until then. But if they don't you could give them a pinky to hold them off. If they didn't have anything until then they would still be fine.

:Hi,
:I often give my Leachies pinkie or fuzzy mice as a treat, usually once every week or two. But, my next shipment of crickets is coming in in about 2 to 3 days so right now I'm left without a single cricket. The question being, would it be alright if I fed a male and a female 1 or 2 pinkies each for the next two days? I have these size mice available as I also have snakes( yes, I'm sorry I have other animals besides my Rhacs, lol)The third day I'm not worried about as I don't feed them every single day of the week. I might even do it so they get the mice tonight, a break tomorrow, and then mice again on wednesday? What do you think? Or should I scrap the whole idea, and take an emergency trip to the pet shop after school? Thanks a lot for any advice
