ANIMAL FEED STORE: NO GOUT ABOUT IT We all love our animals. And we all do the best we know how to do, to take great care of them. Sometimes - even when we have the best intentions - we unknowingly do things that can actually hurt our animals. For instance, a lot of us might actually be contributing to gout in our reptiles by feeding them diets that are too rich in protein. Here's the deal . . . Cockroaches are a great food source for our reptiles. But did you know that roaches are able to convert excess dietary protein and nitrogen to uric acid, store this uric acid in their bodies, and then convert it back to essential nutrients when they need it? Amazing, isn't it?
