Fluker's High Calcium Dubia Roach Diet, 1.7 kg Gut-Loading Food and Bedding

Fluker's High Calcium Dubia Roach Diet is a 3.75 lb (1.7 kg) feeder-insect diet for gut-loading dubia roaches before they are offered to reptiles.

• Clinically proven to create a positive calcium-to-phosphorus ratio in roaches when fed as directed — gives feeder insects a defined nutritional profile.
• Veterinarian-formulated — made specifically for feeding dubia roaches.
• No artificial colors or flavors — formulated without either.
• Can also be used as roach bedding — serves a second purpose in the roach enclosure.
• Enriches roaches with vitamins and minerals before they become prey — includes nutrients in the insects’ gut contents.

Dubia roaches are naturally deficient in calcium, while calcium is essential to proper bone growth in reptiles. This diet is made for reptile keepers who want to prepare feeder roaches before offering them as prey, so the reptile can receive nutrients from both the insect and its gut contents.

How does this diet support feeder-roach nutrition?

Fluker's diet is clinically proven to create a positive calcium-to-phosphorus ratio in live roaches when fed as directed. Gut-loading increases the roaches’ vitamin and mineral content before feeding time. This lets reptiles benefit from the nutritional value of the roach itself as well as its nutrient-rich gut contents.

• Designed for use with live dubia roaches.
• Supports delivery of nutrients through feeder insects and their gut contents.

How can I use it with dubia roaches?

Use Fluker's diet as a gut-loading food before offering dubia roaches to your reptile, or use it as bedding for the roaches. Its two stated uses make it suitable for keepers preparing feeder insects and maintaining their roach setup. Feed it as directed to achieve the clinically proven calcium-to-phosphorus result; the product information does not provide a specific feeding amount or schedule.

• For feeder-roach preparation before they are offered as prey.
• May be used as roach bedding as well as food.

What is the diet formulated with or without?

Fluker's High Calcium Dubia Roach Diet is veterinarian-formulated and contains no artificial colors or flavors. The 3.75 lb (1.7 kg) quantity provides the diet for its stated use with dubia roaches.
