Types of Fruit for CG's

LdyPayne Jul 03, 2003 09:04 PM

Just a quick question: Are the following fruits (baby food) alright for crested geckos?

Pears, bananas, apples, berries (strawberries, rasberries, blueberries etc) and apricot?

Haven't been able to find any mango or any melon type baby food around here yet, other than peach and apricot. I did buy a mango which I will beat to a pulp to feed the cresteds I plan to buy Sunday.

I have used all of them before with no problems. Although I prefer to use mangos, peaches, papayas, guavas and bananas, primary the nectar fruits. They are usually easier to find as the whole fruit opposed to baby food. Just buy a couple let um sit on the counter top for a few days until they are nice and mushy, puree and serve. Freeze any left overs for next time .
