Does anyone have any information/advice/experiences with using this?

http://www.livefoods.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=377

"SandFire Superfoods Crested Gecko Meal Replacement Powder"

I've read about it on a couple of forums and care sheets.. I'm just wondering if it really is all it's meant to be. I know calcium is very important to gecko's, esp females, and I just wanted to know what exactly is in this stuff, and if it is advisable to use as a complete food. Obviously we would vary his/her's diet a bit when we get her because I know I'd get bored of the same stuff all the time!.. but is this stuff any good?

Does anyone on here use it?

Thanks!

Hi Sarah,

I use 'CGD' for my rhaco collection, I use every other day and crickets inbetween (crickets dusted with nutrabol). Since I started using CGD my hatch rates have increased and no signs of MBD in my females.

I have many crested geckos that I bought direct from Allan Repashy, he created the T-rex crested gecko diet to feed to his collection excusively. He has done this now for many generations and is happy with the results, I must admit his geckos are some of the best I have seen.

I mix a little baby food in with my CGD as I use the crickets too, if I was to feed exlcusively like Allan, I would not add the baby food.

Okay.. thanks!

Whereabouts is Allan based??

We've not been having much luck finding anywhere that sells Cresties.. loads of Leopards and Tokays.. but no cresties Sad

I'm based in Essex, we drove to Enfield yesterday to two reptile specialists.. and nothing. Evil or Very Mad

I'm afraid Allan is based in California...I had to fly over to buy mine (plus had to buy over 100!).

I have some of Allan's for sale here http://www.captivebred.co.uk/available_all.htm

and can courier too.
