Specialised Nutrition for Echidnas & Insectivorous Species

Developed in collaboration with leading zoos and wildlife institutions, this formula delivers the essential nutrients required for optimal health and digestion in insectivorous species.


Key Features

  • Nutritionally Balanced – Formulated to replicate the nutritional profile of termites, with added vitamins, minerals, and essential nutrients following carnivore dietary standards.

  • High in Fibre – Includes indigestible components to support gut health and improve stool quality.

  • Proven Performance – Developed and tested in conjunction with professional wildlife carers, zoos, and conservation facilities.

Directions for Use

Mix 40g of Echidna Food (approximately 5 scoops) with 120mL of warm water to form a smooth slurry.

For echidnas already on a formulated diet, transition gradually by replacing 10–20% of their previous food with Echidna Food each day. For hand-reared puggles, begin introducing small amounts of Echidna Food into the milk replacer, gradually increasing over 4 weeks until fully weaned.

To further support gut health and mimic natural feeding behaviour, mix prepared Echidna Food with ~10% crushed termite mound and a few live termites where possible.


Feeding Guide

Maintenance feeding levels vary by individual. Use body weight and condition as a guide, adjusting portions accordingly. Breeding adults and growing juveniles may require 2–4 times the maintenance amount. For other insectivorous species, adapt feeding rates to suit specific metabolic needs.
