EvoRx® - A Revolution in High-Welfare Snake Feeding
EarthPro-EvoRx® is a groundbreaking new snake food from Arcadia Reptile that replaces frozen rodents with a safe, lean and even more ethical alternative. EvoRx® has been crafted by experts as an optimised feeding solution.
After years of research and development, we have created a whole-prey nutrition feeding parcel that better mirrors the nutrient profiles of wild feeders in an easy-to-feed, pathogen-tested frozen format. EvoRx® provides all of the natural nutrients that snakes require to thrive in a convenient, mess-free parcel that’s easy to store and feed. As the hobby progresses towards more naturalistic keeping methods, it is time to evolve the way that we feed our snakes.
Key Benefits
- Optimised for most commonly kept snakes including colubrid species such as including Corn Snakes, Hognose, King Snakes, Rat snakes, Milk Snakes and Carpet Pythons, Many Boas + Omnivorous Lizards.
- Wild-like nutrient profile with portion control to reduce obesity risk
- Optimised lipid profile
- Available in all standard 'mouse' weights from pinkie to jumbo
- Pathogen-tested frozen format for safety and convenience
Why Choose EvoRx® Over Traditional Frozen Rodents?
Feeding snakes with pre-killed frozen rodents has been the standard for decades, but this practice presents several drawbacks that EvoRx®® is designed to overcome:
Reduces the risk of obesity in Colubrids
Colubrids in particular, such as Milk Snakes and Corn Snakes, are prone to avoidable obesity when fed an imbalanced diet. EvoRx® provides leaner nutrition, replicating wild rodent profile and reducing unnecessary fat intake while supporting healthy growth through good portion control
Minimises Pathogen Risk
EvoRx® drastically reduces pathogen risk by using a clean production process, naturally low in harmful bacteria and supported by per batch laboratory pathogen testing. Proper feeding cleanliness is always essential, EvoRx® provides a standardised feeding option for keepers and their reptiles. *See our feeding instructions here.
Eliminates Feed Inconsistencies
Not all frozen rodents are nutritionally equal, weight, nutrient content, and fat levels vary widely across suppliers and batches. EvoRx® is standardised by weight, not size, allowing keepers to precisely control feeding amounts and reduce the risk of overfeeding. By matching wild-like nutrient profiles, EvoRx® offers consistently optimised feeding for colubrids. *See our lipid profile section here
Family-Friendly Solution
Many keepers and their families find handling frozen rodents unpleasant. EvoRx® offers a clean, odour-controlled format that eliminates the unpleasantness of storing and feeding whole rodents. Uneaten portions can be disposed of just like any other frozen/defrosted meat product, making feeding and clean up easier than ever.
Years of Research and Expertise Behind EvoRx®®
EvoRx®® represents years of scientific research, nutritional trials, and veterinary oversight to ensure snakes can thrive on a non-rodent diet.
Proven Results
Our extensive feeding trials demonstrated that over 70% of snakes accepted EvoRx®® from their first feed, with nearly all converting shortly after. Testing across a huge range of species confirmed that EvoRx®® sustains long-term health, weight stability, and digestion whilst helping to
prevent unwanted fat accumulation.
Trusted Innovation
Arcadia Reptile is trusted worldwide for advancing animal welfare through science-led innovation. EvoRx®® follows the same principles that made our EarthPro range the gold standard in reptile nutrition: natural, high welfare feeding solutions that work.
Designed for Colubrid - Closer to a Wild Diet
EvoRx® was specifically developed to cater to the dietary needs of most colubrids. Traditional feeder mice can differ significantly from wild rodent prey,
often containing higher fat and calorie content and a difference in the protein and fats usually found in wild feeders. With EvoRx® many of these fats can be converted by the body into aminos which allow growth rather than fat retention.
EvoRx® is designed to replicate these wild-like nutrient profiles, using naturally
lean prey sources to help balance the protein-to-fat ratio. On a dry-matter basis,
EvoRx® provides approximately 59% protein while maintaining a significantly
lower fat content than farmed mice, ensuring colubrids receive the nutrition they need without excesses.
Additionally, EvoRx® naturally contains:
- Bone and tissue for calcium and phosphorus balance
- Organ meats rich in Vitamin A, D3, and E
- Keratin-based fibres
The Evolution of Feeding: EvoRx® and Hognose Snakes
Through extensive trials, Hognose Snakes emerged as one of the most receptive species to EvoRx®. With a near 100% acceptance rate, Hognose Snakes proved exceptionally adaptable to this food. This suggests that the diet’s avian-derived proteins may be particularly suited to species with natural inclinations towards bird and amphibian consumption.
Observations from feeding trials included:
- Improved growth rates in adult snakes, with individuals unexpectedly increasing in length
- Increased activity levels and feeding confidence, compared to traditional rodent-fed counterparts
- Longer digestion times and improved stool consistency, indicating enhanced gut health and nutrient absorption
While EvoRx® is designed primarily for colubrids, the strong response from
Hognose Snakes deserves comment.
