4:27 - "They're also bugs. They don't have souls" This got me laughing so hard XD I'm trying to mash up dried mealworms (because my crestie eats them like crack). I got to try out hornworms sometime to feed him.
Agree with this 100%. Absolutely. Been using honey for over 15 years. For protein, I'll throw in ground BSF larvae. And, YES on the blended roaches. Right on.
Great videos by any chance do you have a recipe of what your doing ratios ? Example (1p gecko food 1p protein 1/4p honey 1 horn worm 3p water again this is just me guessing your ratios)
@@robbysreptiles thanks for the reply maybe for one of your videos you can show us your method the ingredients can get costly and just wondering how the pros are doing it again thank you for the reply
Perhaps, it's just too fast from their natural diet for me to want to add the raw ingredient to their food. The egg white powder you add in teaspoons composted to a whole egg white
Hello, New member see al of your vidoes (almost all😃) i am from Europe and all the wey supplement are Whit salt, is this bad for the geckos? Thx for all and hopely a answord😉
Processed (heated) honey has no nutrients or beneficial bacteria. Just like how pastured milk has no health benefits but raw milk is the healthiest thing in earth for humans
Would you do the same things for baby geckos? My gecko has only grown around 1 gram in 4 months (he was 2.5g when I got him and now he is 3.8g). I know he is eating because he'll eat infront of me and has a healthy amount of poop, but having him as my first crested gecko, I'm not really sure if this is a normal growth weight. He isn't super intrested in bugs, but I'm going to try to get an even smaller size of crickets and see if he might be intrested in them.
@@robbysreptiles ok. Thanks. I was starting to get a little worried with his growth. I mean he looks healthy otherwise, he is just growing super slowly. I have some organic honey that I will add, and I'll try to order some whey protein as well!
@@robbysreptiles haha. Ok. Sounds good. For the whey protein, would it be better to get whey protein concentrate or isolate? I can only seem to find whey concentrate that is 100% only whey, all of the isolates I have found have other at least 1 other ingredient.
@@robbysreptiles okay cool! I’ve had a lot of luck with it so far. Thank you so much for sharing. I have a very tough gecko that I’m finally getting some healthy weight on! Couldn’t be happier.
Smashing them sounds incredibly painful and time consuming, blending would end it instantly. And then you would have huge chunks of them in the food instead of their protein being evenly distributed in the mix. But hey, you do you
Fucking hilarious, dam your a Savage but you might get cancelled with all the crazy people these days. thank you eager to try some of this out I got a female seems like she has been 30g for 6months or more
I have a few older geckos that I bought from someone and I’m trying to bulk them up, this vid was very helpful!
I never thought of honey. I have plenty of organic local honey in my cabinet! My Mom keeps giving me a jar every Christmas and Birthday! Lol
Perfect free growth formula muahahaha

Based
Thank you for the tips! You had me cracking up throughout this whole video. Keep up the great energy and videos.
Thank you!
This is insanely helpful. Our growing gecko family thanks you lol
“Night night so peaceful😊” “and then they DIE in their sleep👹”
So glad I found your channel. Straight to the point.and hilarious. Don’t forget the organic unicorn tears in the ingredients 😂
True I started adding that in 2023
i couldnt anymore. i died of laughter when he said 'blend m"
Love your style man! Instant fan my man. Love it went people just get to the point and keep it 100% real
Thank you
Thank you for these great tips! Could you be a bit more specific on the quanties you use for each? Love these videos!!
Good gobs of each is my measurement
gonna try this with my younger geckos :) thank you!
Dope
Nice feeding tips! Will definitely look into doing this with some of my geckos lol
This is really useful thank you! Also I loved all the jokes 😂
Glad you enjoyed!
Can I add optimum nutrition whey protein? Cuz I only have that
ONLY add single ingredient pure protein
Im gonna have one gecko only so hey I might add some whey and organic honey to my shakes.
Good video🔥gonna try using the honey for my gargoyle geckos
Good!
Hey Robby. What´s the ratio per gram of WHEY onto Pangea or Repahy? Thank you.
Never weighed it in that much detail. I add very little in the grand scheme of things
When should you upgrade a baby tub
I wait til like 20grams
Are you still using this method or have you switched definitely always looking for ways to add more nutrients if needed
I still use these methods, they don't become outdated
@robbysreptiles nice have to implement this method into my gargoyles
@JEREMIELEE it is egg white powder not egg shell
amazing video and info ! thx!!
No thank YOU
What whey protein do you use or does any 100% grass feed organic whey is good
Doesn't have to be grassfed but single ingredient whey protein if you want to add it
Needed these tips
These are great tips!
Thank you!
Is cow whey or goat whey better for the geckos ? Thank you !
Either is probably fine, I just prefer goat because studies show its more easily digestible
Great videos by any chance do you have a recipe of what your doing ratios ? Example (1p gecko food 1p protein 1/4p honey 1 horn worm 3p water again this is just me guessing your ratios)
I guesstimate it all
@@robbysreptiles thanks for the reply maybe for one of your videos you can show us your method the ingredients can get costly and just wondering how the pros are doing it
again thank you for the reply
It's planned just painting the background for the set
What specific brand of whey is that, also do you add whey, egg powder and honey all at once then blend that with the Pangaea and insects?
I do stuff like this once a week, I feed 2x a week. And any brand of whey works as longnas it's ingredient is only whey
@@robbysreptiles what about temperature? I've heard keeping them warmer keeps their metabolism high n eating more hence grow more or at least faster.
I keep mine at 72 just cuz AC reptiles mentioned on a podcast that higher makes babies burn more calories than they eat and I've noticed the same
@@robbysreptiles what's your gradient? High, low?
@richardsanchez5444 just a constant 72 on the mini split. Weatheroutside makesnitnup or down slightly
Can I also blend a raw or cooked egg (without the yolk) in the diet instead of the protein powder?
Eh, maybe? I wouldnt
@@robbysreptiles why you wouldnt? Is there any difference between dried egg and the cooked? ....except it is dried.
Perhaps, it's just too fast from their natural diet for me to want to add the raw ingredient to their food. The egg white powder you add in teaspoons composted to a whole egg white
Hello,
New member see al of your vidoes (almost all😃) i am from Europe and all the wey supplement are Whit salt, is this bad for the geckos?
Thx for all and hopely a answord😉
I wouldn't add anything containing salt if I were you
@@robbysreptiles thx for the anwsword
Anyone worried about if the bugs don't die quick they definitely die slower when being eaten by the lizards.
Can't win them all
Where is the best priced place to order hornworms? They are a little spendy which is fine but I love a good deal to!
I order off ebay in bulk, get about 30 at a time
How much from everthing i can get my young crested gecko ?
What
@ I mean how much honey I can mix into the feed, for example
could you use procesed honey? is it bad for them?
love the videos
Processed (heated) honey has no nutrients or beneficial bacteria. Just like how pastured milk has no health benefits but raw milk is the healthiest thing in earth for humans
Can I feed my 3 month old crested every day? I’ve been doing it for a week
You can feed any gecko every day, whether they actually eat it is up to them
What's the brand name of the whey you use?
Anything grass fed and organic
dang dude were you shooting with an anamorphic lens for this one?
Lol yes you're the first to notice! I shoot on Lomo square fronts ;)
@@robbysreptiles lomo square fronts? I have no idea what that is lol but I DEF can recognize anomorphic footage lol

That's slow growth! Try adding honey or some whey to the diet, he will eat the same amount but get more calories
@@robbysreptiles ok. Thanks. I was starting to get a little worried with his growth. I mean he looks healthy otherwise, he is just growing super slowly. I have some organic honey that I will add, and I'll try to order some whey protein as well!
@@Avocetexotics not too much if it's just one little hatchling. Like half a gram lol
@@robbysreptiles haha. Ok. Sounds good. For the whey protein, would it be better to get whey protein concentrate or isolate? I can only seem to find whey concentrate that is 100% only whey, all of the isolates I have found have other at least 1 other ingredient.
@@robbysreptiles I can only find isolate ones with added sunflower lecithin or soy lecithin
Do you feed whey in every feeding?
Almost!
@@robbysreptiles okay cool! I’ve had a lot of luck with it so far. Thank you so much for sharing. I have a very tough gecko that I’m finally getting some healthy weight on! Couldn’t be happier.
Lol the deep voiceover made me like this vid
Didn't think I had a deep voice
Dude you look jacked
Dude I used to be
I only added honey and they ate much more the first time.🤙
Glad to hear it!
Umm instead of blending the hornworms can I smash them instead? I don’t think I can justify blending insects to make gecko food to my parents.
Smashing them sounds incredibly painful and time consuming, blending would end it instantly. And then you would have huge chunks of them in the food instead of their protein being evenly distributed in the mix. But hey, you do you
Buy a cheap bullet blender off Amazon. Then you have one specifically for your geckos. And you won't have to use a family one. That's what I did.
Awsome
30 to 58 😦….
YUP
Couldn’t be kuzon 😈
Fucking hilarious, dam your a Savage but you might get cancelled with all the crazy people these days. thank you eager to try some of this out I got a female seems like she has been 30g for 6months or more
Definately try these hacks!
I respect how Robby is very true and not trying to be someone he is not.
Cancelled 😂😂😂😂🐛🔪
Immediately
Thanks for the tips👍🏻👍🏻
You're welcome!
