Live food is an integral component of any reptile diet. It ensures your pet gecko receives enough of the necessary vitamins and nutrients at just the right time.
Ideal, gecko care should focus on feeding live prey as this provides more nutrition than ready-made gecko food products. There are several choices available for both insect-eating geckos and fruit/nectar feeders.

Exo Terra Day Gecko Food
Exo Terra Day Gecko Food is an easily digestible food supplement designed to help your gecko maintain optimal weight. Packed full of essential vitamins, minerals and amino acids – Exo Terra Day Gecko Food will keep your gecko coming back for more thanks to its delicious aroma!
Geckos in the wild consume an array of insects, fruits, nectar and pollen for sustenance, while their pet counterparts require food that provides high concentrations of these essential components in an easily digestible formula. A mix of high concentration foods along with an ideal mineral/vitamin balance will ensure your gecko’s long term health – you should choose food sized appropriately to minimize waste while fitting snugly into decorative items like the Kanak Tribal Ornament or Exo Terra Flat Canopy Combo will do just this for pet geckos!
Zoo Med Crested Gecko Food
Zoo Med Crested Gecko Food is a premium blended gecko diet created by an animal nutritionist using cutting-edge scientific information and techniques. Formulated to meet the dietary needs of crested geckos in all life stages and including probiotics for maintaining digestive health, this premium blended diet provides superior nourishment.
Product is offered in either pouch or bottle formats and offers two tantalizing flavour options – Watermeon and Tropical Fruit. Our high-quality formula is comprised of an abundance of fruits and healthy bacteria to provide your gecko with all of the nourishment they require to live long and prosperous lives.
This formula is recommended for geckos and lizards that feed on insects, fruit or nectar, such as crested geckos, gargoyle geckos, leach’s geckos or day geckos. You can feed this product either wet or dry and it makes an easy way to supplement their existing diet. Furthermore, this product may even serve as their main food source if that is what they prefer!
Gecko Nutrition Banana Strawberry
Gecko Nutrition Banana Strawberry is a complete feed mix consisting of numerous insects that provide a protein-rich diet, making this feed mix ideal for crested geckos while it may also be fed to other fruit-eating gecko species.
As with other gecko foods, crested geckos require foods with a balanced calcium to phosphorus ratio (Ca:P). Foods containing excessive oxalates may cause urinary tract stones and are toxic for reptiles.
Cresteed geckos in the wild consume primarily mature fruit, flowers, nectar and pollen; they hunt insects and small prey items. Fruit is therefore an integral part of an appropriate and healthy crested gecko diet but should only be given occasionally as too much can be harmful for these reptiles.
Gecko Nutrition Watermelon
Gecko Nutrition Watermeon is an easy-to-mix powder designed to offer live geckos a delectable meal. Formulated using high-quality fruits, insects and vitamins for maximum nutrition – making this one of our most beloved crested gecko food offerings ever since we first introduced it back in 2013. It quickly became one of our best-selling crested gecko foods since being introduced back then!
The watermelon variety of this gecko food was specially created to provide geckos with an irresistibly delicious combination of real fruit, protein-rich insects, and essential minerals – perfect for all life stages of fruit-eating gecko species and suitable for daily or alternated feedings with live food.
Gargoyle geckos, New Caledonian giant geckos, mossy prehensile-tailed geckos and day geckos all enjoy feeding on this delectable diet; it is especially helpful when breeding crested geckos.
