Yeah think it is the meal replacement stuff. Thanks for your comments will deft try with some fruity baby food.
Another thing is if excess crickets are in the Viv, should they be removed or left?


Thanks i am a bit of an amateur Embarassed





i put about 5 or 6 crickets into an empty plastic dish like you get when you buy crickets .

they crawl about in there and my cresties come down and catch them with out them invading the viv.

i had previoulsy just tipped them into the viv but they were hiding too much and were not getting caught .

I would say that if you have one gecko in a viv and the crickets haven't been eatten in 24 hours take them out, if you have a few geckos in the viv then i would normally leave them in there for a few days (not that they would ever last that long, my geckos eat crickets pretty quickly)

I leave the crickets in until they grow too big for the geckos then I remove them (if they ever last that long). The crickets eat up the CGD in the viv so that stops them chewing on the lizards and keeps them gut loaded.
