Alternative live food

Variety is the spice of life!

Animal husbandry and reptile keeping should be no different.
Providing reptiles with places to hide, room to move and naturalistic environments is widely accepted as a must in the world of reptile keeping. However, one component for a happy reptile often overlooked is providing a variety of live food to help stimulate their hunting instincts and keep them active! Offering a variety of food from a young age can encourage them to enjoy an assortment of insects and help prevent boredom.

Most keepers know nutrition is as important as proper heating and lighting for their pets, but they are sometimes restricted to one or two types of live food due to knowledge or availability.

This comprehensive table showcases what food is suitable for each life-stage of commonly kept reptiles. Share this with your customers or use it as a quick reference guide!
