    Default Suggested products for gut loading crickets?

    I typically gut load my crickets with potatoes and carrots. I alternate the days I feed carrots and the days I feed potatoes. I have looked at several different brands/formulas for gut loading crickets. My co-worker makes his own by putting cherrios, fish flakes, and a few other ingredients in a blender and gut loading his crickets in powder form. What is the best mix/brand to use specifically for crickets being fed to a Pacman? Is powder or cube form the best?

    I would continue doing fresh fruits and veggies. I feed mine whatever extra that we have around. Orange slices, carrots, broccoli, apples, pears, spinach, etc with a bit of cheerios. Then make sure you you use vitamin and calcium dust.
    2.0.3 Hyla versicolor "Eastern Gray Tree Frogs"
    2.2.0 Agalychnis callidryas "Red Eyed Tree Frogs"

    0.0.3 Dendrobates auratus "Turquoise and Bronze"
    0.0.1 Anaxyrus fowleri "Fowler's Toad"

    Thanks. I do use vitamins and calcium. I only supplement the crickets into his diet. He primarily eats nightcrawlers. He loves snatching the crickets in his enclosure though.

    Fresh salad, carrots, and I also use the Zoo Med cricket feed as a secondary in my cricket keeper and they seem to love that stuff.

    I actually feed my crickets fresh veg/salad and fruits.

    As I'm mainly loading them primarily for Dragons and Chams, I feed them what I dont usually feed them daily. Logic being its extra goodness for the reptile/amphibian eating them.
