Gut Loading

[drewwhite26]

What is the best way to gut load crickets? Is there a food you can buy that has a ton of fruits and veggies in it or do I need to buy them all fresh from the store? Wondering if there was a more cheaper or convenient route to take?

Buy nutritious food for self... Give the feeders the trimmings or wilted stuff

What I do is I buy kale (.99) every week because I have a tortoise but I also buy 3 different kinds of veggies. This week it was eggplant, sweet potatoes, and zucchini. I also already have that Multigrain cheerios cereal. I use orange slice for water. I crush it all up together and put it in the cricket box. I live in CO so I have to wash the dried up stuff off and put more everyday.

I change the vegetable mixture every week TH
