If they do, their reptile will be dead soon! These organ products given in SMALL QUANTITIES to LARGE (5 feet +) is OK, otherwise, stay away from them for vara-food.

good luck,

Its chicken innards, kidneys, hearts, necks, etc etc........ Its like 1.50 for a bunch of it, so that gives you an idea of the quality... its not something that should be a staple.

gizzard is a second stomach, a very muscular organ used to grind food found in some birds. Quite tasty though chewy lol.

You can try ground turkey. I give it to my nile every once in a while and he loves it.
