Repti-cal is good....... Also a good one is Miner-all I........ Cricket quenchers are to keep the crickets hydrated and is not good as a gut load......... You should buy this stuff called gut load....... It comes in a black tub and has lots of good stuff for your crickets to eat....... Fresh friuts and veggies are good too but you dont have to go crazy with them......

Yep i use rep-cal calcium and herptivitamin. To gutload crix i use fresh veggies and the yellow and red beardie pellets (my beardies are stubborn they will only eat the green ones).

I use Miner-all1 (indoor) for calcium supplement, and I gutload with a old fashioned whole grain cereal, fruits, veggies, and sometimes crushed monkey biscuits.

Thanks for the extra suggestions guys!
I'm so excited to get him~!
I stick with Miner-All indoors also. It's supposed to be the best all around supplement. As for gutloading, I keep my crickets on 100% bran, sprinkle in some cricket food pellets, and place a lid of cricket quenchers in there for water. Haven't had any complaints yet :D

I highly recommend Miner-all as well. Makes your lizards grow like weeds...and all other herps that could benifit from it. Stuff is wicked cool. Just use it wisely as you seriouisly do not need to put more than a light sprinkle on meals ever so often. Invest in this stuff, you will never go back to anything else! And never need another can of anything other than your natural foods, seriously...
