Hi everyone,
(This was previously posted in the feeder insects area)

I am re-posting this here since I have had no answer and am wondering if I should stop feeding the crickets water jell.

*I have baby gray tree frogs and when cleaning I noticed a fairly large piece of (blood red) cricket water jell obviously passed by one of the frogs since it was attached to feces and red in color.

The only way I can think of for a frog to have ingested the jell is if it was a piece of dehydrated jell stuck to one of the crickets when it was fed to the frogs. It must have re-hydrated in the frogs intestines. I can see that this could be extremely dangerous causing discomfort, dehydration, impaction, and possibly death!

Has anyone had or know of anyone who has had the cricket water gel making it's way to the animal the crickets are fed?

Should I stop providing the jell as a water source?

Thanks in advance,

Dani
