I've used (tried) the base along with 2 nectars (papaya and banana) and had mixed results:

My results to date:

Leachies - both flavours were lapped up by my leachies. Empty bowls the next day!!

Cresteds - I've had a mixed response with my Cresteds. One female ate both flavours. My two other females ate more with the banana nectar mixed in but only after it had been sitting for two nights (in other words when it was fresh they didn't touch it but the following evening (before I cleaned them out) they ate half the portion). My male ate more of the banana mix.

Chahouas - My chahouas haven't been keen on either of them. I have found them to be the hardest to try it. My female did try both flavours (you could see a lick mark) but she didn't try much. She loves her fruit so I am going to persevere. My male didn't try it.

Gargoyles - this is the interesting result. Some of my gargoyles liked one and not the other and vice versa (quite odd I thought). All but one of my gargoyles appear to have eaten or at least tried one flavour.
