Nutrition people I need your input on a new gecko food powder!!

[daggekko]

Hey, Petsmart has their brand "All Living Things". They did a reset with their reptile products(HUGE expansion) and added a product called "Crested Gecko Powder". I couldn't tell if it was possibly made for them by Repashy so I wanted to ask some nutrition geeks what they thought. The fruit flavoring I'm going to imagine my Phelsuma would LOVE. So here are the ingredients:

Egg(whole dried), Honey powder, Banana powder, Fig powder, Mango powder, Dextrose, Modified food starch, Soy protein isolate, flaxseed meal, calcium carbonate, vegetable oil, brewers dried yeast, dicalcium phosphate, dried kelp, sodium chloride, di-methionine, choline chloride, lecithin, mixed tocepherols, silicon dioxide, rosemary extract, citric acid, potassium chloride, magnesium sulfate, iron sulfate, zinc sulfate, magnesium oxide, beta carotene, vitamin e supplement, niacin, copper sulfate, menadione sodium bisulfate complex, vitamin a supplement, riboflavin supplement, sodium selenite, vitamin d3 supplement, vitamin b12 supplement, biotin supplement, folic acid.

If someone could pretty pretty please explain whats good/bad about these ingredients as well? My diet sucks(lots of junk food and mt dew) so I could use some help understanding.

I'm not sure cresteds in the wild eat poultry eggs and kelp :lol: The % or amount in IU is as important as the variety of ingredients. Artifical food tend to be overdosed with vitamins, which is very harmful on the long run.

If you want a proper diet for your crested(s)...offer them properly gutloaded insects and fruit mashes with added calcium. Miner-All I will do and bring enough D3 vitamins.
