Blue River Fruit & Bug Gecko Diet 450g | Crested Gecko Food

Blue River Fruit & Bug Gecko Diet 450g is a complete gel premix food for crested geckos and other frugivorous reptile species. Made fresh in the UK from natural ingredients, it combines real fruit with insect protein to deliver a nutritionally complete diet without artificial colours or flavourings — no guesswork, no supplementation juggling.

What's in it

The formula centres on black soldier fly larvae for protein, blended with mango and banana for natural fruit palatability. Honey and bee pollen add genuine sweetness rather than artificial flavouring, while soya protein, brown rice flour, and guar gum provide structure and digestible bulk. Calcium powder and magnesium carbonate support bone health, and the inclusion of Lactobacillus helveticus supports gut flora.

A note on appearance

Occasionally, the magnesium carbonate in the mix can cause a blue discolouration once water is added, which can look like mould. This is entirely harmless and disperses when the mixture is stirred properly.

Made fresh in the UK with no artificial additives, Blue River Fruit & Bug Gecko Diet 450g gives keepers a straightforward, trustworthy staple diet for crested geckos and similar species — consistent nutrition in every batch.
