Has anyone seen or tried this before? I was in Petsmart picking up dog food and of course wandered to the reptiles area and saw this. Wanted to add some variety to my cresteds diet but unsure if I really want to open this or not.

National Geographic is cashing in on the pet/reptile industry. Enclosures, Food,Thermometer hygrometer. I dont trust it.

Seems to be a brand new product, Rick. Have not heard of anyone using it yet.

There are many reputable, and known, crestie dry diets available.

Ya I just happened to walk in and see it and bought it. I'm just trying to get my pregnant female to eat something. I ordered a few samples of Clark's but that won't be here for a while and I thought about grabbing some of repashys day gecko food for her but haven't had a chance yet.

Wonder why National Geographic is getting into the reptile business. Perhaps their readership is down because of e-books and all? They have produced a 16 x 16 x 24 inch tall vivarium that would be useful.

Have you tried any of Pangea's complete diets: banana/apricot, watermelon/mango, or banana/papaya? My male crestie eats mostly crickets.

I haven't yet but I just may. I ordered banana, guava and plain clark's, imwas looking for something that I could just get off a shelf and not have to worry about shipping time. But I'm going to look at Pangea, do you just order directly from them? I have dubia but they've out grown my geckos and it's a wee bit cold here in CT to have any shipped to me lol.

Wonder whether samples are available from Pangea?

At the last show I attended in January I picked up the 2 oz Pangea Fruit Mix Complete Formula: watermelon & mango. Crestie George "thinks" it's OK. I think he prefers his crickets.

I'd rather buy locally and save the shipping costs. Sometimes that just is not possible.

Ya I don't know when the next show is and nothing is closer than an hour anyways so the shipping cost doesn't matter lol. I'm going to order the Banana/papaya mix, I didn't see any on the site when I went to order so I'm guessing not. Im just going to place the order and pray she freaking eats it. Usually she devours her food but I can barely get her to touch Repashy CGD mixed with Grubs N Fruit, why decide to be picky now! Pregnant females crave everything lol. Hopefully when it warms up I can order some nymphs again.

Thanks for checking re Pangea samples.

Yep, that's what they say about pregnant human females: "Pregnant females crave everything."

Hope you guys get out of the "deep freeze" soon.
