Yes, they're gut-loaded prior to being put into the enclosure. I do put a few more than necessary in with every feeding, because the tank is actually quite large, and very full of climbing surfaces and plants, and I'm afraid if I don't, a couple of them might not find enough food over the course of the night. I do my best to tong feed the ones that like to be more out in the open (and actually go for food on tongs), but I have a couple that are very content with staying hidden 80% of the time - this species more than any other I've ever had are very prone to staying in just a few favorite spots and only really moving when food catches their eye or they want to head to the bottom of the tank to soak. I do my best to spread out the crickets as I release them, but even at night, they're attracted to the heat and minor light the nighttime heat lamp puts off, and still hurry to the top of the enclosure.

I gut load with a mix of vegetables and fluker's cricket food & quencher, and I always make sure that they're pretty stocked, so that there's a good gut-load for any of them being tossed in.
