[mttycaz85]

Bananas, and also that Repashy fruit mix stuff they make for Crested Geckos.

No citrus. Feed them Repashy CGD every day, and only offer fruits as a treat.

You can offer these on occasion :

Banana
Grapes in small amounts
Mango
Papaya
Strawberry (without the seeds)
Passionfruit
Peach
Fig
Apricot
Cherry

They love apples and applesauce. All my fruit eating reptiles do and it's everyone's favorite here Don't give it too much though or otherwise they won't eat CGD.

Have you noticed any change in your gecko's behavior after you feed applesauce? I've been hearing from a couple friends that they have been throwing some back up or even getting sick after eating it. Just curious, because I've never fed apples and wouldn't want to if it's bad for them.

What?! That is crazy! No my reptiles have never ever gotten sick from it. I think your friend might need to take his to the vet. I feed the all natural applesauce with nothing added. I feed apples that I cut into tiny pieces also and hand feed them. So far I have fed apples to: Blue tongue skink, crested geckos, white lined geckos, tokay geckos, golden geckos,lined day geckos,giant day geckos,crocodile geckos, and cuban knight anoles. I might have given some to more types of reptiles but it's hard to remember because I deal with so many. That's really crazy that a gecko would throw up after eating. That means it is sick, maybe from respitory issues. If it can't breathe right reptiles will sometimes throw up.

Seriously just use the Repashy mix. It's got everything they need, and is much more nutritious than anything you could make on your own.

I used to make concoctions of all kinds for my crested geckos for 3 years, last year I switched to Repashy ONLY and have noticed DRASTIC improvements to health, weight, reproduction, activity, color, hatchling size, more frequent mating, bigger poops, etc etc.

I just use it plain, but you could mix it with some pureed berries or mango or they really seem to like papaya.

The gecko was taken to the vet, it had reactions to the apple, could be the odd allergy, but have you ever heard of an allergy in a gecko? Not I, until I talked to them.

Repashy has a two part nectar diet for that, 99% of the time your gecko will never go back to normal CGD.. LOL
