Crested Gecko Food
Crested geckos are omnivores and have been observed eating a wide range of foods in the wild, such as fruits, flowers, nectar, pollen, insects, seeds and nuts.
In captivity, it is essential to feed your crested gecko a diverse diet that provides it with all essential nutrients. Feeder insects should be offered regularly so that your crestie has access to an ample source of protein.
Vegetables are another nutritious choice for many crested geckos. Vegetables can be mixed with fruit in a “smoothie” form and offered three to four times per week.
Meal replacement powders are another popular choice for crested geckos. Made with quality ingredients, these powders can easily be mixed with water to create a tasty “smoothie” your gecko will enjoy licking up.
Day Gecko Food
Day geckos in the wild feed on a variety of insects, fruits and nectar. Additionally, they consume some vegetables and greens.
Exo Terra’s Day Gecko Food helps your gecko maintain their dietary diversity and provides a range of beneficial ingredients to support their various metabolic functions, keeping them happy, healthy and vibrant.
This diet has been carefully tailored to provide your gecko with essential proteins, calcium and vitamins for their optimal health. Furthermore, it contains probiotic microorganisms which promote digestive wellness.
When feeding a home-made diet to your gecko, it is essential to generously sprinkle an excellent vitamin and mineral supplement. Most fruits and vegetables are low in magnesium, iron, and iodine so make sure the supplements include these vital minerals as well.
Gargoyle Gecko Food
Gargoyle Gecko’s in the wild feed on fruit and nectars, but they have also been known to consume some insects. As a pet gecko owner, it is essential that you provide them with a varied diet with all essential nutrients for optimal health.
To guarantee your gecko is getting all the essential nutrition, offer them a powdered Gecko Diet from an established reptile brand. These mixes contain all necessary vitamins and can be mixed with water to form a thick smoothie for them to consume.
A popular option is zoomed gecko food mix, which can be purchased at most pet stores or online. These usually contain high quality ingredients and are tailored for various species of geckos.
As a general guideline, offer your pet some fruit once or twice a week and dust them with calcium and vitamin D every other day. In addition to providing them with a nutritious diet, make sure they always have access to fresh water and don’t let them go more than two weeks without eating.
New Caledonian Giant Gecko Food
New Caledonian Giant Geckos are omnivores that feed on insects and fruits. They typically inhabit forests in New Caledonia and some surrounding islands.
These geckos may be more challenging to keep in captivity than other gecko species, but once settled in your terrarium they’re relatively easy to care for. Just remember – they are prone to biting so make sure you wear gloves when handling them!
They love to climb, so provide them with ladders and climbing toys. Additionally, place a hide box or cork bark tubes in their enclosure so that they can hide when necessary.
They prefer nocturnal environments, so create a warm, humid, and noiseless setting for them. While they will sleep during the day, be prepared for them to become active in the evenings.
