My beardies went off crickets suddenly also, they only eat Locusts now and they seem fine with it, I had heard that larger crickets taste more bitter and maybe thats the reason they go off them sometimes.

I have tried recently to see if they would go back to them, but still prefer the locusts.

As they are larger then they do not eat as many, but they both eat more salad now and have an average weight gain of 20grams a week.

Both are about 5 months old and were about 4 months when they went off them.
