Leopard geckos and other insectivores require an array of prey items. Repashy has developed several products which are ideal for this purpose.
All insects fed to leopard geckos should be gut-loaded and dusted with high quality calcium powder (with or without Vitamin D3) before being placed into their enclosures for feeding. Many keepers also leave a dish of calcium powder without D3 available for their gecko to lick as desired.
Repashy Grub Pie
Repashy Grub Pie is a gel food designed to supplement or replace live insects in the diet of insectivorous reptiles and amphibians. Crafted primarily from cold-pressed Black Soldier Fly Larvae Meal (BSFL), which induces an instinctual feeding response among most insect-eating reptiles and amphibians. According to Repashy reports that even species that require moving prey or have shown little interest in freeze-dried insects and pelleted foods have responded positively when introduced Repashy Grub Pie for the first time!
As it can be fed as a slurry, paste, gel, gravy or topper on dry kibble diets as well as used as an insectivorous feeder for leopard geckos, bearded dragons, blue tongue skinks, ackie monitors and other insectivorous reptiles; it may also provide supplement or replacement diet for amphibians like anoles and day geckos.
Repashy Grub Pie can easily be prepared by mixing water with Repashy Grub Pie powder and allowing it to set into a gel, which can then be cut into long strips for feeding purposes. It contains ingredients found naturally such as coconuts, dried watermelons and flowers.
