>>Hi there: So you just put together a mixture of the veggies you listed, and added those other ingredients? Where might I get some of these ingredients? And do you sell the Dry gutload? Thanks-Maggie
Hi Maggie,
No.. we don't mix a bunch of veggies. We put fresh veggies in with the feeder insects every day. I usually have a couple different veggies on hand - so place a few chunks in a dish. The dry mixture is placed in another dish. That has all the extra goodies in it.
The items we put in the basic gutload are available through pet stores, grocery and health food shops. The ingredients we use in our super gutload - well - you have to find a farm supply where they sell all the different items/grains we use (no corn). We bought 300 pounds last trip. Then we get out the stone grinder and get to work. We add lots of healthfood store items to the mix.
We have a bunch of folks that use our super gutload locally. We have never offered it online or anything - although our vet suggested we produce it commercially for other herpers. He consulted with us when we were constructing our recipe. We are contacting the state university testing lab for the exact analysis and other pertinent labeling information that will be needed.
One thing we do know - the bugs are on it in seconds..!! They love this stuff.
