What is Wholeprey?

Why is Wholeprey important in a reptile diet?   

Why does it matter to diversify my reptile's diet?

These are questions that many of us have wondered at one point or another. The answer overall is easy - nutritional balance. 

Wholeprey is simply, the WHOLE animal - muscle tissue, bones, organs, etc.

Very few thorough studies exist for nutrition reptiles require, which can make finding that nutritional balance difficult. Here at Mother Of Reptiles, we encourage prey variety to bridge the gaps in nutrition that occur when feeding a single prey type.

Meaning, if you feed only rodents, you might be missing out on vitamins/minerals/amino acids that another food source might provide. If you only feeding chicken breast or ground turkey, you would be missing the calcium from bones and nutrients from organs.
