hey
ya know what,i acually was thinking to myself and thought it could possibly be the gutload i'm using..i'm using the fluker's orange cubes..after i wrote that post i was really thinking about it,and don't know if it could be the gutload or not..i take good care of my crickets,always keeping the keeper clean and they always have fresh cubes to eat..my best guess is it is the gutload,i don't really know why else it would look like that..any other ideas would be good though,i just hope the crickets are safe to feed,i don't want my cham getting sick..thanks for the reply..
