I'm very dubious about these types of "foods" for insects. I think 99% of these things are ripoffs and of no real nutritional benefit.

Only processed dry food I give to my insects are Repcal adult bearded dragon pellets.

I'd say keep to mostly fresh high protein high calcium greens and carrot for feeding the crickets.

As long as the 50 watt is keeping temps to what they need to be 95-105 for an adult dragon and 105-110 for a baby your good - that temp needs to be taken w/ a infrared heat gun or digital probe to be accurate --- the Thrive UVB I have never heard of and is apparently new because your the second person now w/ one and this is what I told them -- I can recommend what works -- a Reptisun 10.0 tube either the T 5 or a T 8 depending on the size of your tank --- if its 40 and over a T 5 would be good - you can use a T 8 in the 40 gallon tanks but if you have a larger tank I would get the T 5 bulb--Arcadia bulbs are good as well 12% bulb

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
