    What do you use the insecticide for? Are you killing the crickets before feeding them to your frog? My fbt's won't eat anything dead. Or since you raise your own, are you just using that for the inevitable "Cricket Genocide" that has to occur when they get too big for your frogs and other reptiles?

    I feed mine cricket drymix sometimes but mostly i feed them lettuce. Cucumber, carrot, spinach, celery. Sometimes mushroom, apple, banana.

    He means "Millet", those seed things they hang in cages for parakeets, etc. If crickets go for that I think I'll try it on them as well. I'm always looking for more ways to bump up my cricket diet so they are healthier for my frogs
    Mom to these fine frogs!
