Gutloading with CGD?

[AndyRew]

Would crested gecko diet make a good gutload?

 

[Mr Wilson]

I'm not sure how it would do as a gutload, but I do know that it's more expensive to buy than store brand frozen greens

Try Cricket Crack, by Tiki Tiki Reptiles. You can find a link to their site in the sponsor section located in the upper right hand corner. Click on "View our Sponsors" they are 17th down.

Cricket crack is a great dry gutload. You could also use vegetables.

Go to Sandrachameleon's blog. She has GREAT stuff on there.

yea i have heard of the crack and thats probably what ill do. But if you use it, do you also need a wet gutload?

 

[sandrachameleon]

Yes, you want a wet gutload. The wet gutload, with fresh fruit and veg is more important than the dry, imho.

On the face of it, sounds like a decent mix. But How much of each item? What's the nutritional analysis? In particular, how much Vitamin A acetate? And D3?

 

[Mr Wilson]

Hey, save the CGD for us Crested Gecko owners

For our crestie, we do 1 part CGD 2 parts water. So for what ours eats we do 1/4 tsp CGD and a 1/2 tsp water.

CGD is a complete diet for crested geckos, it removes the need for insects in their diet.

The nutritional analysis would most likely be on the repashy website, but my internet is too slow for me to check right now, sorry.

 

[Ellron]

The Repashy website does not have a nutritional analysis that I can find.
