Comments:

ZooMed's Leopard Gecko Food is naturally slow dried flies. It does not contain Ethoxyquin, (a pesticide/insecticide) or any preservatives. It is a product that the hermit crabs would eat in the wild as a source of protein, and contains other vitamins and minerals that help a hermit crab to maintain a healthy well balanced diet.

Score Card for this product:

Pros
It is a high protein source which is important for a hermit crab to have a healthy well balanced diet. It is easily found in most pet stores and can be purchased online. Our hermit crabs really seem to enjoy this food, which is an added plus considering it is good for them too.
Cons
It has a fairly strong odor, which is not really a pleasant smell. It is actually dried flies, not for the squeamish crabber. Must supplement other foods to ensure well balanced diet.
