Useful tool for keeping my Beardie fed
So, my bearded dragon almost died once, he refused food for at least one week, maybe two. I think he had some sort of impaction, and so I was giving him small syringes of prune juice until he finally pooped. Ever since he’s been a really picky eater, and for the longest time it was hard to get him to eat anything but bugs. Over the past year (he’s 3) he’s gotten more comfortable with eating veggies, but he was still very picky and never ate a whole lot. I was looking into what kind of plants we could pick for him outside to see if there were anything he liked (I already knew he likes dandelions a lot, and clovers went over well) and saw this product mentioned on a forum. Came and read reviews, figured it was worth a shot and ordered it. Within two days of giving this to him his appetite is completely different. He now eats ALL of his veggies! I keep it in the fridge, and to feed it to him I just dip a single leaf in it on one side, fold it up (I don’t think he likes the taste) and tease him until he chomps down. I usually do a couple of leaves this way, and then give him the rest in his bowl. I’m really very pleased with this and will probably always keep some on hand for the future. If you have a picky lizard it’s worth a shot, it absolutely has changed my beardie’s appetite.

Seems like something is going on in my animals?
I used some Nature Zone B-12 and sprinkled a light coat of NutriBac on some food and fed it to my animals. You can see a difference in their attitude in a few days. Iâm interested in how a little longer use will effect them but they seem to be doing better. More alert and content. Healthier⦠B-12 helps with that but there is more going on than that and I skeptical about most products anymore. This definitely seems to be helping them though. Even snakes coil better and hold their heads a bit different. Iâm very happy so far. Impressive that anything works anymore. Seems most products are just made for suckers to buy and have a moral boost when nothing is actually doing anything. Hopefully we can see more products like this out there soon.

Wow!
Baby Cornsnakes (not uncommonly) regurgitate their food. I recently got the sweetest little female who did this. I thought for sure she was going to die. You have to wait 10-14 days after they regurgitate before you feed again because the stomach acid can burn their esophagus otherwise. This little one was only 10 grams and had gone over 2 months with no food. I was heartbroken sure I was going to lose her. A breeder suggested this probiotic to me. I dip the back end of her thawed food in it and sheâs kept the last **3** meals down! Itâs almost time to feed her again, Iâm so relieved and so thankful! Amazon had it to me like the next day. Iâll use it on all baby snakes from now on.

Treats Cryptosporidiosis in Western Hognose
I have a snake with crypto, this is helping her to gain weight and she has her energy back. Of the 2 probiotics I have tried, this one had the biggest impact.
Update: I had hypothesised that crypo kills via overgrowth from microbial imbalance and I am happy to say that not only my animal, but 8 other western hognose that were experimentally treated with this product not only fully recovered, but have remained well for over 2 years now. No animals in the experiment failed to recover. While a larger formal trial is needed, I will endorse this product at this point as a treatment for crypto. Since cryptosporidium serpentis can never be ruled out as present in an animal’s system, no animal treated with this product should be treated as cured and they should remain isolated from healthy animals, but this will give them their quality of life back. At this point, crypto is less of a death threat and more of a growth impediment which is still a big deal for breeders, so the spread should still be avoided.
If your animal is regurgitating, there is a very good chance it has Crypto. It is likely no coincidence that most of the high reviews come from owners of hognose, bearded dragons and corn snakes, all of which are notorious for cryptosporidiosis. Geckos carry it, but less frequently become ill. There are many forms of crypto, my trials were specifically with cryptosporidium serpentis. Best of luck if you landed here in desperation.

Interesting product blend
Seen improvement within about a week of use, was interesting to see what bacterial cultures were used for the appetite stimulation. Powered clumps very easily so a tiny bit goes a long way.

Well worth the money!!
This is a MUST HAVE if you have bearded dragons. I can definitely see a difference in my babies just in three days time.

helped my bearded dragon
My bearded had a couple days of runny poops and wasnât showing much interest in food. I added this to some feeders and he seems much happier, got his appetite back and has been running around again
