Fruit & Yogurt Diet

From RhacsCanada:

• 1 large can (approx. 800 g./28 oz.) of unsweetened mango pulp. If unavailable, canned peaches (in juice or light syrup) will do.
• 1 small to medium very ripe banana
• 1 or 2 soft pears
• 3-4 figs
• One or two other fruits. They love peach, mango, pear, banana, dates, figs, grapes and all manner of berries – especially strawberries. Just about any fruit will do, but try not to use citrus fruit.

All the fruit is blended until smooth and then poured into a mixing bowl.

Stir in 100 grams (one individual serving size container) of low fat yogurt, plain or any non-citrus fruit flavour. Any brand will do, but the ‘live’ bacterial culture provides extra benefits so it’s the preferred kind.

Stir until well mixed and pour into ice cube trays. Cover the trays or put them into freezer bags to prevent freezer burn. Thaw and serve at room temperature. Supplements can be added at serving time if needed.

The reason I don’t add supplements to this diet before freezing is that I can snitch the odd ice cube smoothie if I want. It makes for a nice healthy cool treat! Just don’t think of it as gecko food lol

Reptile Expo March 2011

Looking forward to meeting everyone there bright and early.

As usual we will have lots of Clark’s Gecko Diet available, and maybe even a few Cresties.
