Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)It would make more sense to get your supplies one at a time, especially since the dry food is useless. The rule with food is this: if it doesn't move, they won't eat it. If, for whatever reason, your gecko won't eat, force feeding them this stuff is nearly impossible, not to mention stressful for the little guys, so if they get sick or stop eating, go to the vet. What often happens is (s)he gives you a syringe (not the really pointy kind, but the plastic-tipped, somewhat wide kind), and you use what they give you (usually some protein type mix) or meat flavored baby food, if the vet says it's ok. If you don't have to force feed them, then go with live food, just as nature intended.
As for the wipes, you can get those anywhere; the book, as well, if you feel you need one, but the internet has Tons of goodies as long as you make sure the sites are reputable and you cross-reference your info--but it's free and pretty detailed! I've never needed water conditioner, and since you should try and use filtered water (try brita filters or something like that) and change it daily, water conditioner won't be necessary.
Also, the pack leaves a few things out: calcium is pretty good, especially if you have fertile females (leave it out for them--they'll eat some when they need it); you also should get some vitamin dust to sprinkle on live food from time to time, but not too often, as it can be toxic in large quantities. You also need a heat source and lots of goodies to hide in and climb on.
In short, for a starter kit, you get a lot of stuff you don't need, and not much of what you do need.
