Can anyone help with leachie diet......please?

den237 Jun 17, 2004 09:18 PM

Can anyone tell me what kinds of foods their leachies eat, some articles say meat based baby food with fruit flavored as a treat. I can't find any care sheets on them. And I would like to know what kinds of foods they eat.

Thank you

I used to use a baby food mix in the past for most of my rhacs, but now I use the t-rex diets with the mix given every 2 weeks or so. Here it is. one jar of chicken or turkey baby food, one jar of banana(this is about twice the size as the meat jar), and one jar of peach(also bigger than the meat). to this mix you can add 1/4 tsp. of a calcium with d3 powder like rep-cal or miner-all I, and 1/4 tsp. of a vitamin powder like herptivite, or you can just add 1/2 tsp. of t-rex leopard gecko dust.
good luck
