● 1 - Alle dyr har brug for væske. Det væske der findes i kosten er en vigtig kilde. Ældre foderdyr indeholder generelt mindre vand end yngre.
● 2 - Proteiner er muskler og vævs byggesten. Proteiner (og carbonhydrater) indeholder hver ca. 4,0 kcal/g af den ME.
● 3 - Fedt i kosten hjælper optagelsen af vitamin A, D og E, og er en koncentreret energikilde (ca. 9,0 kcal/g af ME).
Dyr metabolisere fedt hurtigere end mennesker.
● 4 - Vitamin A
Vitamin A is a fat soluble vitamin that is required for healthy skin, mucous membranes, the retina of the eye, muscles, teeth and other tissues. Vitamin A deficiency is probably the
second most common contributor to premature reptile and amphibian death.
● 5 - Dagaktive krybdyr har i høj grad brug for vitamin D3 for at metabolisere kalsium. Vitamn D3 absorberes gennem UV-B lys og eller pulver suplement.
Man har observeret krybdyr der har fået meget D3 vitamin på foderdyrene, ikke bruger så meget tid på at sole sig
● 6 - This fat soluble vitamin is an important anti-oxidant and is essential for proper cell function. As with the other vitamins, there is no scientifically-supported recommended level for this
vitamin in the diet of reptiles and amphibians. At this point, it is educated guess-work taken from other species.
● 7 - Proper Calcium levels are important for bone and tooth growth, heart health and proper metabolic functioning. Calcium deficiency is one of the leading causes of Metabolic Bone
Disease and probably the leading cause of premature reptile and amphibian death.
● 8 - Phosphorous is a chemical element that, combined with Calcium, forms the majority of bone in the body and it is used in nearly all the body‘s metabolic processes. Too much
phosphorous can inhibit the absorption of calcium. Generally speaking, reptiles need a calcium to phosphorous ratio of between 1:1 and 2:1.
● 9 - Metabolizable Energy (ME) is a combination of the gross energy of the feeder animal + how digestible it is + a factor for metabolizing the nutrients it contains. To illustrate the
importance of ME, a 450 gram bearded dragon will need approximately 10.8 kcal/g of energy per day, and a 1200 gram ball python will need approximately 25.8 kcal/g of energy
per day.
