Insect & Custodian Foods — Essential Nutrition for Feeders and Bioactive Setups
Keeping your feeder insects and bioactive custodians well-fed is one of the most effective ways to improve the overall health of your reptiles and amphibians. A properly nourished insect delivers far more value than one raised on low-quality diets, and a thriving clean-up crew keeps your enclosure stable, hygienic, and self-maintaining.
Our range includes gut-loading diets, insect hydration gels, and specialist foods for isopods, springtails, roaches, and crickets, helping you support every part of your feeding or bioactive system.
Why Nutrition for Insects & Custodians Matters
Healthy feeder insects = healthier reptiles. Gut loading simply means feeding insects high-quality, nutrient-dense foods before offering them to your reptile. This ensures the nutrition inside the insect is passed directly to your animal, dramatically improving their calcium intake, energy levels, and overall condition.
In bioactive enclosures, custodians such as isopods, springtails, and roaches break down waste and help maintain a clean, balanced ecosystem. While they can survive on organic matter alone, feeding them properly helps them:
- Reproduce faster
- Work more efficiently
- Become a nutritious occasional snack for reptiles that forage naturally
