http://www.amazon.com/Flukers-Orang...8&qid=1461871083&sr=8-2&keywords=cricket+diet is this good for my crickets to eat? Does that stuff "gut load"? and if not what should I use?

you can gut load with veg, fruits etc i also throw a few cat biscuits into my cricket container (a breeder suggested that to me a while back), my crickets grow big and juicy then i dust them with calcium ready for my chams dinner

No don't use that. Best to use fresh oranges as an alternative for your water source. Also as mentioned fresh fruits and vegetables. I don't know about cat biscuits. Using dog food because of the protein content is usually frowned upon.

Yes, what Carol mentioned in the above post! The Fluker's cube is really only good for keeping your crickets hydrated and the nutritional benefits are little to none. If you really want easy, I would recommend a dry gut-load sprinkled over a fresh piece of vegetable. Check out the Chameleon Food section on here for Cricket Crack or Bug Buffet. The seller's name is Nick Barta and he is a really great guy to deal with! I've been using both gut-load for over a year now and am really happy with the results.
