BPZ Complete Diet

Black Panther Zoological’s Original Complete Diet is a truly unique formula designed around one core belief: “frugivorous gecko” is a misnomer. In the wild, New Caledonian geckos rely primarily on insects, with fruit making up only a small portion of their natural intake. BPZ’s revolutionary diet reflects this reality by using 100% insect‑based protein as the primary protein source — the first commercial gecko diet to do so.

With a blend of tropical mango, banana, guava, and papaya, combined with human‑grade insect protein, this diet offers exceptional palatability alongside unparalleled nutritional depth. Every ingredient is chosen for its broad spectrum of vitamins, minerals, and natural carotenoids, supporting colour, growth, bone health, and long‑term vitality. Completely non‑GMO, free from whey, soy, pea, egg, artificial flavours, and manufactured preservatives, this is a clean, whole‑food diet designed for geckos that thrive on insect nutrition.

Formulated at 28% protein, BPZ Original is ideal for larger New Caledonian species such as leachianus and chahoua, as well as juveniles needing additional support for growth. Its higher protein content also makes it an excellent choice during breeding recovery, while still being safe for year‑round feeding.
