Re: [Gecko] gutloading

Matthew,   I currently use golden gecko gut-load and flukers at a 50/50 mix.  I used to use fish flakes, oats, spirilina powder, along with some vegetables for a few years and it worked well.  Anything with a good protein/calcium level and a low fat level should work.  I currently prefer the flukers/golden gecko gut load, it doesn't start to stink, even after a week, and with it, I have seen better color and growth in my animals.  I usually clean my cricket cages every week anyway, but when the fish flakes got moist, yuck!!!  Oh, I personally would suggest staying away from dog/cat food or even monkey chow, but that is up for some debate.  There are several commercial products available, but they are not cheap.  I would go with the Flukers or Golden Gecko, its cheap and keeps a long time.  I hope this helps.  I am only speaking from experience:-)   Thanks,    Pete   Peter W.
