I propose everybody to collect maximum informations about Manuka Honey (MH).

Here in Switzerland we can get 16+ active MH with a great antibacterial effects.
1,8% 16+MH is active against Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and 10% against methycilin-resistant SA .
With a concetration 8-15% you bet an inhibition against lots of bacterias.
We know there is a powerfull antioxydant effect.

But it is not dangerous for the intestinal flora of the green geckos ?

What is your experience and with which preparation of MH ?

sorry for my scandalous english !!!

Hi Nic,

I have good contacts to Gecko keepers from NZ and they all have been feeding Manuka honey regularly for many years without problems. I am not sure if they use the active one though, I use the "normal" Manuka honey for my Geckos...

Hi both of you,
I use the "normal" Manuka-honey for mine too. I add a little water and some Calcium to it and offer it especial during the summermonths every second week.

.. you're right Chris,

the good question is not Manuka Honey or not, but active 16+ Manuka Honey or "normal" Manuka Honey ?

Thanks Nicolas,
that would be great!

What do you mean with the age??? Does something depend on the age of the animals??
Mine are much older and much younger what should I give them?!?!

Do you give it to Hoplos, too??

Thomas
