Wombaroo Echidna Food 1kg Expiry Date 08/26

Wombaroo Echidna Food 1kg offers a convenient and nutritionally complete feeding solution tailored specifically for echidnas. This easy-to-mix powder transforms into a smooth slurry, making feeding simple and consistent. It is particularly beneficial for wildlife carers looking to replicate the echidna's natural insect-based diet in a controlled environment.

Ideal for both adult echidnas and hand-reared puggles, this formula supports gradual dietary changes and safe weaning practices. As puggles grow, the food can be introduced alongside milk replacer and increased over time. For improved gut health and enrichment, the addition of termites and crushed termite mound is recommended.

Key Benefits:

  • Provides balanced nutrition with key vitamins, minerals, and nutrients aligned with published carnivore dietary recommendations
  • High fibre levels help encourage digestive wellbeing and firmer faecal consistency
  • Developed and tested with input from zoos, wildlife carers, and conservation experts
