What food do reptiles eat?

There are as many different reptile diets as there are types of reptiles! Even within one species, such as lizards, different breeds can prefer meat, veggies, or both. The preference to eat live versus preserved food, and whole food versus pre-mixed, also depends upon the type of reptile. For example, lizards are stimulated to eat by the movement of live insects. Snakes are most commonly fed on a diet of thawed pinkie mice or rats depending on their size.
You’ll need to research your particular animal’s nutrition needs to ensure you feed them an appropriate diet. Our in-store experts are happy to help you choose the right reptile food, or if you’re buying reptile food online, call us to chat!

Do reptiles chew their food?

Most reptiles don’t chew their food, but rather swallow it whole and spend significant time digesting it in their stomachs. Interestingly, some reptiles can aid digestion by swallowing rocks and pebbles, which help break down food by grinding it.
