Reptile Food for Your Beloved Pet
Reptile Food for Your Beloved Pet
People desiring different kinds of pets mostly look to buy various types of reptiles. Bearded dragons, snakes, chameleons, lizards, and turtles are growing in popularity with animal lovers.
The most important thing for your pet reptile’s survival is food. A healthy diet means a healthy and long life for your pet. Every species of reptiles has different preferences when it comes to food. For example, if you buy turtles, you will have to feed them prepackaged food sticks as well as dried shrimp and live fish. Lizards such as Chameleons and Bearded Dragons like worms, crickets, red leaf lettuce, roaches, kale, and squash, etc. Snakes, on the other hand, can be fed on live or frozen diet such as frozen mice, live rats, etc.
Following are some recommended reptile food for your beloved reptile pet:
1. Common Chirpers (Crickets)
Crickets deliver a satisfactory dietary staple for reptiles such as bearded dragons. House crickets (known as Acheta domestica) are easily available at our online store. Purchasing crickets in bulk can be cost-effective. Additionally, maintaining them until you feed them to your pet is also cost-effective.
2. Chitinous Meals (Mealworms) 
Chitinous meals such as Mealworms (also known as Tenebrio molitor) are a great food for various insectivorous reptiles such as chameleons and bearded dragons. There is a lot of caloric content available in single mealworm. Therefore, feeding it to your pet reptile helps maintain its body mass. Furthermore, buying mealworms in bulk is recommended because they can be easily maintained in a 5-gallon bucket.
3. Silky Wigglers (Silkworms)
Silky wigglers (also known as Bombyx mori) can also be used as a diet for your pet reptile. These silky wigglers are also known as “silkworms”. They are perfectly save for use as a herp food because they are raised on a nontoxic diet.
4. Tomato Honkers (Hornworms)
Just like silkworms, tomato hornworms also make a great diet for your reptile pet. Tomato hornworms (also known as Manduca quinquemaculata) are found on our online South Florida Rodents store. Remember, it is not recommended to use wild-caught tomato hornworms because they are mostly toxic to your reptile pet. Purchase hornworms only from our online store where it is guaranteed that we raised them on a nontoxic diet.
