Default Komodo CGD?

Hi,

I'm hoping to get a crested gecko soon and spotted this Komodo CGD. It's in a small bottle like the old T-Rex stuff and says it can be used exactly the same?

Does anyone have any experience with this as I don't want to import the repashy unless needed.

Komodo bought out T-rex and repackaged it, but as far as I'm aware it's the same as the T-rex CGD, can't compare it to repashy as I have never used that.

Yeah it is the same stuff, they just have a new name.

If you are going to use it it needs to be mixed with water, not sprinkled on anything. Cresties do not eat vegetables.....

I feed mine the Repashy stuff from the USA, he prefers it to the stuff we get over here

I am goint to interfeer here sorry.

T-rex is still on the market so get that.

Komodo isnt the same mix unfortunately. Komodo nutritionally should be the same but it has no or very little flavouring, hense why alot of crested gecko's wont touch the stuff.

Use komodo if you plan on mixing with real fruit puree, if just adding water try T-rex. Havent had a problem with T-rex yet

Yeah I agree theres hardly any flavour to the Komodo cgd and mine much prefer the repashy I import from the states or if you can still get hold of the trex.
