I have a fairly large collection of Rhacos and feed the Sand fire foods exclusively. Basically offer it every other day, and don't feed them any thing else. When they get hungery enough they will eat it. Remember that it is a very rich food and they do not have to eat a whole lot of it to be satisfied. It may take a week or so before they decide to eat, but eventually they will. Give this a try and let me know if you have any other questions.

I haven't heard of this diet yet [don't even have my crestie yet. I'm still setting up the enclosure ] Do you have a link or something to it? Thanks

you can find T-rex's crested gecko formula at a lot of your local petstores now. PetSmart, and PetSuppliesPlus have started carrying it. The MRP (meal replacement powder) was created by Sandfire Dragon Ranch, so you could start there, but I know Reptile Depot has it. www.reptiledepot.com
Good luck
