Here at Canadian Feeders we have been doing in-depth research into
what items would make inexpensive and high quality gutloads. After
testing some of our findings we are proud to offer you three
different gutloads available from us for your convenience. All of
our gutloads are safe for mealworms, superworms, crickets and any
other insect that can be gutloaded.
Please note that you should never feed your insects any
foods that have been moulded over or kept in a moist environment.
Mouldy food has been linked to many problems and deaths in
otherwise healthy animals. You should also attempt to feed only
what your insects can consume in one or two days to help ensure
this does not become a problem. If culturing insects be sure to
keep them in a well ventilated container to help prevent
condensation and moisture from building up.
Bee Pollen
Fresh bee pollen has been used by humans for years for many reasons.
Bee pollen is nature's most complete food, containing 22 elements and
more protein per gram than any other natural food. It also has
stress reducing and alertness enhancing properties in addition to
being one of nature's best sources of complete nutrition. The same
benefits humans have enjoyed for years can now benefit your pets!
Canadian Feeders supplies multiple sizes of fresh bee pollen, either whole
or finely ground, to be used as a gutload for your insects or as a
vitamin and mineral rich insect dusting product. Try some today and
we guarantee you'll be satisfied!
Ingredients: 100% Fresh Bee Pollen.
Canadian Feeders Gutload Mix
This high quality mix was created by us here at Canadian Feeders to
provide you with a great staple diet for any of your feeder
insects. After consulting with herp nutrition expert Edward
Kowalski and testing several versions of the gutload we have
finalized our formula to provide you with one of the healthiest
gutloads available anywhere. In addition to being a gutload, our
mix can provide food and water to your insects. Just boil some
water and add one part of boiled water to one part of the gutload
mix, allow to cool in the refrigerator and feed at your leisure.
Do not boil the water with the gutload mix already in it or else
the probiotic cultures will be eliminated. Also, do not prepare
more then you can use in a couple days to ensure the highest
quality feed. Unprepared gutload mix can be stored in a cool and
dark place for maximum shelf life.
