    How many crickets do you feed? As I can never seem to get my fire bellys to stay a healthy weight?

    If it helps, I feed mine daily to every other day on about 8 crickets per frog. If you have babies or juveniles it is best to feed 1-2 times a day

    I can't help with the others but the pyxie I can. I would ditch crickets all together if you can their digestive tract makes them inferior unless its your only option. Superworms are also a waste. Dubias are an excellent staple along with earthworms and both are extremely easy to culture. I dust 2x week and vitamins 1x. I also don't feed until its absolutely stuffed like most. I keep my animals on the hungry side. This has worked well over the years for numerous pacmans and pyxies. Crickets, hornworms, etc are just for some diversity or treats. Pinkies are really a waste imho but I do feed live mice once a month. Its my treat to them to get to hunt some bigger prey though really.
