    Lightbulb Feeding DRY crested gecko diet? HHhhhmmmm...

    I was watching this youtube video (attached below) and at the end garrick explains that they now feed unmixed CGD, no water, just dry. Of course along with dusted crickets, but this was a surprise to me. Have any of you tried or hear of this method of feeding Cresties? Any concerns or thoughts. Im not judging or anything. He is obviously a very reputable breeder of the species. I might give it a try...


    Start watching the video at 6:16 to see what im talking about.

    hey, i watched that video a few months ago and decided to give it a try, it seemed like my geckos didnt care for it and looked like they only took a couple licks from it, so i went back to adding water to it lol, the only good thing is that you can leave it in a bit longer but when i misted there cage it seemed to clump up at the top. i only have two so its not like it takes all day to replace there food .

    I feed dry to 100+ cresteds, no issues. I do feed crickets once a week. Tried dry on a whim with some groups one evening and never went back to mixing with water. I also keep a fresh water dish in the cage as well.
