- Feed to insectivores at a rate of at least 50% of their daily dry matter intake. Feed intake will vary based on animal body size and lifestage, level of activity and environmental temperature.
- Initially, soaking Mazuri® Insectivore diet in water (2 parts water:1 part dry diet) may help to transition animals that are used to soft/moist diets.
- After 1-2 weeks on soaked diet, move to 1 part water:1 part dry diet, and 1-2 weeks later, offer dry diet.
- If moistened, replace diet twice a day.
- If feeding live insects to the animal, ensure insects are gut loaded prior to feeding out.
