I got a packet of Clarks food, should i still add baby banana food to it. I bought 2 jars but can only be open for 2 days, which is a big waste as if mixed with the clarks will only fill half a milk lid for 2 days.
I can find powdered banana in health shops is this suitable?

Banana is not a great food for regular use. Its OK for treats once or twice a week but Clarks is a complete diet and doesn't need anything mixed into it. Harley wouldn't touch Clarks but see how yours goes before worrying. If it wont eat it let me know and I will pay forward someones earlier kindness and send you a sample of my Repashy as they did for me.

I wing Harley's diet once every 3 days I give him live food, either crickets, roaches or a waxworm, dusted with calcium. The two days between he has Repashy and then on occasion I give him fruit but he only seems to like Mango and Strawberry so I have little bits frozen for him.

You will also find that all baby food has antioxidants and other stuff in it to keep it the colour we think it should be, I avoid giving these to Harley.

Barely ever give any fruit at all, Repashy has all he needs for nutrition, the live gives him fun of the chase and a little bit of extra calcium for his sacks so fruit is a very rare thing.
