ok so I got some t-rex sup, now what

beardiedragon Feb 01, 2004 08:48 PM

got the t-rex supliment, first day I used it to dust crix just to see if it made a difference. It didn't. Day 2 put it on everyones salad, no difference. From what I read, I thought they would devour the salad like a kid after candy. At the end of the day there was still salad in all the bowls as usual. Is there usually an immediate difference, how long does it take to see a difference in their appetite. I understand it is a complete diet but how much of it do they need to eat? They love their pellets...

Bennet it is supposed to make them eat more of their salad. I do not think it is an immediate change. I do not know that for a fact. Give it some time. It is a little different diet may take some time for dragons to get used to it. The dusted crickets should be eaten the same. I think if they love their pellets then feed them pellets. I am a big fan of pellets myself but will use the trex for salads for the little babies. It just makes the salads into a more complete meal for your dragons, as it adds protien, vitamins, and minerals to the salad which they might lack slightly.
