    Springtails are insect-like organisms that feed mainly on fungi in soil and decaying organic matter. They are tiny harmless organisms that make great food for very tiny young frogs.

    The problem with that is that the crickets can't grip them well.

    Question Re: Culturing Crickets - Care and Breeding of the Common House Cricket

    I used reptomin and tadpole pellets and ground them up with a mortar and pestle. The crickets seem to like it. My problem is getting them to drink water. The mixture has calcium and vit c from the reptomin. Is vit c as important or more important than D3? Are either required by frogs?
