I've read that crickets can eat chicken crumbles or pellets. Some chicken crumbles are treated with medication for coccidiosis. I know that crickets can catch coccidiosis and pass it onto frogs that eat them (one very likely way my WTFs caught it). Can crickets be fed this medicated chicken crumble and become free of coccidia? How long does it take for food to pass out of a cricket's system? Would feeding crickets gut loaded on medicated crumbles in turn medicate frogs that might have cocci? (I think this would be risky without research). Frogs with intestinal parasites also have intestinal inflammation and irritation, could crickets eat coconut oil, which is known to be a natural anti-inflammatory, and then be fed to the frogs to help sooth irritated gut symptoms while they are being medicated?
