Dried food is not a good replacement for actual greens or proteins.

no.

in fact I use the adult version of these dry pellets to feed my crickets.

I have in the past mixed the Juvi version with some similar sized VetaFarm Lizard Pellets (based on mutton bird meat and oils) with the greens and grated / processed veg when Rex and Puff were little. I softened the pellets in a small medicine cup in some just enough water to cover them, unsweetened fruitjuice works well too - makes the pellet slurry more palatable.
