"supplemented with vitamins/minerals and maybe some spirulina, bee pollen (if you can find it), etc. would be good, especially if the owner doesn't want to, or refuses to, feed insects."

please hear me out I AM NOT TRYING TO BE A TROLL but i feel very strongly that all animals should be taken care as good as possible and "ewww crix are nasty, ill just throw in some meat baby food and potentially harmfull ingrediants" isn't right
in the case of crested geckos they should have gut loaded crickets unless THE GECKO refuses to eat them. do you know the content of spirulina and bee pollen in the CGD because it is very very low if you use too much it may be harmful and also feeding insects (or anything for that matter) comes with herpitology and if you cant take the heat get out of the kitchen.

granted they can grow up on lots of food with this and that thrown in and I am not trying to be mean but it seems like you cant hear me it is not the healthiest way to raise them so i should NOT BE DONE.
