Directions for Use:
Prepared food may be stored refrigerated for a day or frozen for up to 2 weeks.
Meat-mix:
Mix 10g (1 level scoop) of powder with 20g minced meat, fish or hard-boiled egg.
Add extra water to moisten if necessary. Mix in live insects to encourage feeding.
Veg-mix:
Mix 10g (1 level scoop) of powder with 50g finely diced fruit or vegetables.
Soft Pellets:
Mix 20g (2 level scoops) powder to 12mL of water.
Slowly add the water and mix into a putty-like consistency. Break-off small pieces and roll into soft pellets and feed. Drinking water should always be available.
Liquid Slurry:
Mix 10g (1 scoop) of Reptile Supplement with 25mL of warm water.
Mix well and let stand for 1 minute to absorb all the water. If too thick, add a little extra water and re-mix. Prepared liquid slurry may be mixed 50/50 with canine recovery formula (e.g. Hills a/d™) to enhance texture and palatability. Feed at about 30°C using a syringe with large bore. Use as a critical care formula for sick, injured or inappetent reptiles.

Turtles: Feed a variety of live food (insects, crustaceans, feeder fish) with Reptile Supplement prepared as Meat-Mix or Soft Pellets. Avoid contaminating the aquarium by removing any uneaten food. Do not overfeed.
Bearded Dragons, Blue-tongued Lizards & Larger Skinks: Feed a variety of live insects and plant material with Reptile Supplement prepared as either Veg-mix, Meat-mix or Soft Pellets.
Small Skinks, juvenile dragons & Geckos: These are mainly insectivorous and should be fed a variety of live insets and Reptile Supplement prepared as Meat-mix or mixed with water to form a moist crumble.
Feed Estimates (for reptiles housed at 30°C)
For temperature of 25ºC = multiply value in table x 0.7
For temperature of 35ºC = multiply value in table x 1.5
Table gives daily feed estimates. For reptiles fed less frequently, multiply values by the number of days between each feed.
