To: AztecLizard,

The leos can eat the t-rex sandfire superfoods cricket gutload formula for supplementation if it's on the mealies? I didn't know that - so pretty much, your substrate/gutload is mixed flaked baby foods & then you take out a few mealies and put them in the leo's feeding dish which has a thin bottom filling of the cricket gutload (which you replace once a week)... and they'll be eating that .... correct? i hope i understood that right... if i did, i'll be trying that too - maybe mixing the substrate/gutload with what you said and what xelda advised... then doing the trex cricket gutload in the leo dish if that works... hopefully i understood this correctly, pls let me know! hopefully it's on your website, coz i'm going to be checking that out right after i post this thanks!!!!!!

To Everyone:
how do YOU gutload your mealies?

Offspring available now from LV Patternless Albino stock for '03 and '04.
Working towards Bell Patternless Albinos for '05.

My crix and mealies are gutloaded the same way as Aztecs.....hmmmm Hey Bill, didn't I tell you about the babyfood thing?, lol..
Anyway, they are fed Gerber mixed baby cereal, powdered fat free skim milk, with a little calcium dust tossed in. They are also fed whatever I happen to be feeding the beardies and torts that day (greens, carrots, squash, etc.)

hmmmmm, you know, I think my feeder insects eat better than I do. lmao.

thanks for the info!

yeah mine are gonna be eating better than me too! what kind of container do you hold them in?
