Live Reptile Food

People have always been fond of keeping pets, even reptiles. These include chameleons, Hermit crabs, sugar gliders, bearded dragons etc. If you too are keen to keep a reptile pet then make sure you provide it with some nourishing live food. Today the market for ordering online reptile food is flourishing in UK. Many online companies vie with each other promising their customers good quality live reptile food.

Basically we can categorize live reptile food into two segments which are
  • Live Bugs: Live bugs include-
    1. Crickets
    2. Fruit Flies
  • Live Worms: Live worms include:
    1. Meal worms ( Offered from mini to giant size)
    2. Wax worms
    3. Zophobas worms
    4. Red worms
    5. Night crawlers

    Today it is not a major issue to feed your reptile on some live reptile food as many companies and retailers sell pre-packaged food like crickets, cockroaches, mice, locusts, mealworms, earthworms, fruit flies, bait-worms, etc. One can also treat the pet well by occasionally by offering him chocolate-coated locusts, or crickets rolled in pastries. These live insects or live food is sent to your doorstep properly packaged with instructions about the proper way of storing them. Instructions regarding the ideal temperature that should be maintained to preserve the live food are also given to the customers.

    Live food is always healthier than tinned food. Live food is rich in vitamins, minerals, proteins, which are essential for the healthy growth of the pets. These insects can be easily rolled in pastries, biscuits and bread. Utmost care and caution has to be taken to provide clean and healthy roaches, worms and beetles, as unhealthy, unclean or infected live food will not last long and may harm our pets. Besides if the special instructions given by the supplier are taken into account, this live food can be preserved for a longer time. These insects live food needs to be transferred from the boxes in which they arrive to the most spacious areas, where the temperature is kept under constant control, cleanliness is maintained.

    The stores that supply live food vouch for its purity by assuring that they have been kept in very hygienic conditions and are of good health. Some pet reptile owners are frustrated on finding that the order that reaches their doorstep contains weak, diseased and dead insects, even after paying the full price for them. This is in fact the responsibility of the firm that the consignment should be in an absolutely healthy condition when it reaches the doorstep. For that there should be special care taken, while packing and transporting the insects and also see that the necessary precautions are taken, so that we get the live reptile food in a healthy condition.

    So we can now depend on these online stores to provide us with the best and the choicest possible live reptile food for our pets.
