DragonJosh":lh97zsi0 said:When I had crickets I used fish flakes for gutloading, but you can also by "cricket food" from various venders for example Ghann's (online) when I used to deal with crickets as a staple. Make sure to have a moisture source, no actual water as they'll drown in it. Like a sponge, fruit, or potato works well. Also don't forget to dust the crickets with a calcium and multivitamin supplement powder.Tons of ventilation to reduce humidity = less casualties. Paper towels/toilet paper rolls work well for hiding spots for the crickets, and just keep the enclosure clean regularly. As far as mealworms, it's usually advised as to NOT give to a baby bearded dragon as they have a lot of chitlin (hard shell), and can cause impaction as a young age. They should be used more like a once in a while variety if you wanted, and not as a staple. Hope this helps, and welcome to the fun!
