Hi all, has any 1 got any good cricket formula's for feeding calcium defecient leo's. Wat do you feed your crickets??? I'm currently using cricket diet plus by medivet but the crix never seem to bother eating it unless i dont see them. So i have been using tropical fish flakes which they seem to like and for water i supply a wetted down paper towel. I need some food ideas for feeding the crix with nutritious high in calcium food. THX Gilbery007

dont use fish flakes because some of them have like 20 times as much phosphorus as calcium. I don't know what cricket formula your talking about but you can sprinkle the calcium powder on the food they eat.
