Zoo Med's Repti-Cricket Now Available at Swell Reptiles
The perfect vacation/ convenience food for most cricket feeding reptiles! Fresh freeze dried crickets dusted with Reptivite and an all natural flavoring agent that reptiles simply go crazy over!
How do I feed this stuff?
Our secret is in the sauce (or flavoring, actually!) Since all reptiles identify their prey by movement or by smell (scent), we slow cook our flavoring into those yummy crickets to make it attractive to hungry reptiles. Simply open the can, sprinkle with water (to make the scent stronger) and watch your reptiles feed! That's all you gotta do! This food can also be easily combined into the diet of omnivorous reptiles by mixing with vegetables. The natural moisture of the vegetables will automatically activate the scent.
Helpful Hints:
1. If your reptiles do not readily accept Repti Cricket, they may not recognize it as food. Try offering it along with live crickets to help your reptile associate the scent with a prey item.
2. Repti Cricket consists of large sized crickets. If you have small or juvenile lizards (such as anoles, swifts or young bearded dragons), this size is too large for them to easily consume. Keep your eyes open though, we may be coming out with a smaller size in the near future!
3. It is not necessary to coat Repti Cricket with additional vitamin supplements, as it has been coated with Reptivite prior to cooking.
