Oops! I forgot to answer the part about transporting him to the vets...good thing Carlton and lele told you!



You asked..."you think the orange flukers cubes aren't good for gut loading??it says it has everything the crickets would need and has worked good for me that last like 3-4 months..no problems until now with him.."...I'm just not a fan of commercial foods for the insects because I don't know for sure what is in them. I give my crickets a wide variety of greens (dandelion greens, kale, collards, endive, ROMAINE lettuce, etc.) and veggies (sweet red pepper, celery leaves, carrots, white potato, sweet potato, squash, zucchini, etc.).



You said...."i use miner all,herpvite(or whatever its called,vitamins though),repcal..6 outta 7 days a week"...I only give the herptivite twice a month. Is it Minerall I or O that you use? If its the I type then you are giving D3 more often than I am....I use a calcium/D3 powder twice a month. I use the rep-cal calcium at almost every feeding. If you are giving D3 at every feeding, then it could very well be too much.



You asked..."do you all think i should get him to the vet asap or do you think things could get better??if i need to take him to the vet asap,i'll find money..i normally have some,but right now i'm out"...I think somehow you have to figure out what is causing the thirst and the diarrhea cycle. While we can only make educated "guesses" a vet should be able to tell you what the problem is. If it goes on for too long it will likely lead to something more serious IMHO.
