Coat your crickets with calcium dust every other feeding. Crickets have an
exoskeleton and cannot molt if they ingest too much calcium. If they can't
molt, they will die prematurely. People who "gut load" their crickets will
large amounts of calcium will see an early die-off of their crickets.
We
looked hard and found the highest quality calcium on the market. This
calcium is used in industrial applications where purity is critical. Now,
we bring it to the reptile market so you can have a healthy pet at an affordable
price.
