Made fresh in the UK from natural ingredients, it combines insect protein with real fruit and supportive supplements — covering nutrition, gut health, and palatability in a single formula.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the mix\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ingredient list is straightforward and purposeful: black soldier fly larvae provide bulk protein and healthy fats, while mango and banana bring real fruit sugars and fibre. Honey and bee pollen add natural sweetness that fruit-eaters respond to, and the formula is rounded out with soya protein, brown rice flour, guar gum, calcium powder, and magnesium carbonate. Lactobacillus helveticus is included as a probiotic to support gut flora.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eNutritional profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrude protein: 19%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrude oils and fats: 4%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrude fibres: 8%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrude ash: 2%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVitamin A: 20,000 IU\/kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVitamin D3: 2,000 IU\/kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMade in the UK, no artificial additives\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFreshly produced in the UK with no artificial colours or flavourings. The absence of synthetic additions keeps the diet clean and close to what a fruit and insect-feeding gecko would encounter naturally. Real fruit ingredients rather than flavouring extracts make a measurable difference to palatability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMixing and feeding\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCombine 1 part formula with 2 parts water and stir thoroughly — add more water to adjust consistency to your gecko's preference. Remove any uneaten food from the vivarium after 24 hours. Mixed diet can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge and should be discarded after 7 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNote: magnesium carbonate in the formula can occasionally turn blue once mixed, which may resemble mould.
