Blue River Diets Gecko Food

Crafted by nature, perfected by science.

We are committed to providing a healthy, balanced, and low-fat diet for crested geckos, inspired by their natural feeding habits in the wild.

Extensive research into the dietary needs of wild crested geckos, combined with an understanding of the challenges of captivity, has allowed us to develop a formula that delivers all the necessary nutrients while controlling fat intake.

Blue River Diets is centered around the inclusion of nutrient-rich ingredients that provide energy and essential nutrients without excess fat:

Real Fruit Powder: Fruits are a natural part of the crested gecko’s diet in the wild, providing vital vitamins and antioxidants. We use real fruit powders to supply natural sugars and fiber, making the diet palatable while delivering the nutrients that geckos need without contributing to excessive fat intake.
Soya Protein Isolate: To ensure a high-quality, plant-based protein source, we use soya protein isolate. This protein is both easily digestible and low in fat, providing the essential amino acids necessary for muscle development and overall health without adding extra calories from fats.
Coconut: While coconut does provide healthy fats, it contains medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) that are metabolized quickly by the body for energy rather than being stored as fat. This helps keep geckos energized without contributing to unwanted weight gain.
Soldier Fly Larvae: Our insect ingredient, black soldier fly larvae, is an excellent source of protein while also being low in fat compared to other insect options. The larvae provide essential amino acids and nutrients, supporting muscle growth and tissue repair without the risk of adding excess fat to the diet.
Bee Pollen: Bee pollen is packed with nutrients, including proteins, vitamins, and minerals that support immune health and digestion.
Postbiotics for Gut Health: We include inactive Lactobacillus acidophilus as a postbiotic to support gut health. These postbiotics help maintain a balanced gut microbiome, promote digestion, and improve nutrient absorption, ensuring your gecko gets the most out of their food.

Blue River Diets are formulated with careful attention to the unique challenges faced by crested geckos in captivity. By prioritizing low-fat, high-protein ingredients like soya protein isolate and black soldier fly larvae, we offer a complete, balanced diet that prevents obesity and supports the long-term health of your gecko.

Our formulations ensure that your gecko enjoys a diet that mirrors their natural feeding habits while remaining suitable for their captive lifestyle.
