These cubes are perfect for live crickets. They tend to dry out fairly quickly so I dip them in water before I put them in a cage/container for cricket consumption.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for both crickets AND dubias
Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2023
Was quite skeptical prior to purchasing if these cubes would actually keep my crickets alive more than 2 days. And, in fact, they did. There's still die-off, but I've had my crickets still alive 7 days after purchase using these cubes, which is a big win. The scent is awesome, orange ????, like the color. Plus dubias will monch happily too.

 Glad I bought it. Seems full of good nutrients. Fed to my crickets, mealworms, fly larvae. They all started munching immediately.

4.0 out of 5 stars 1 star- taste awful
Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2019
Just kidding. Even my crickets seem hesitant to eat them, and keep in mind these arent great cricket food as a daily meal- consider them a supplement, meant to gutload your bugs with nutrients that are ultimately intended for your pet. I toss them in the day before with the crickets slated for the gallows or when i know i'll be away for a day to stop them from eating each other. Too much calcium makes the molting process difficult and eventually fatal- the molt becomes too hard and brittle for them to squeeze out of and they suffocate in it. But, great value and as far as i know they dont go 'bad'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best cricket nutrition
Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2023
This makes it so easy to keep my crickets feed and watered. Has the best nutrition. I feed my beardie the crickets and I know he is getting the nutrition he needs because the crickets are getting the nutrients they need.

5.0 out of 5 stars They didn't all die overnight, but I may have cheated...
Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2020
So I ordered this online, because it was cheap, and then went looking for crickets, and bought the crickets from Flukers. This means Flukers is likely to have been feeding them this diet already, so it's unlikely they'll all die in 24 hours.

The only downside to ordering crickets from Flukers was that all of the crickets are dead set on escaping and they missed on staple, so the few hundred crickets I bought for my Geckos started to escape in my room before I caught them.

I ended up having to plug up the bathtub, put the box in there and set up my cricket bin. I put Eco Earth in the bottom with some garden soil and earthworms and then egg crates. This meant there was already moisture in the box, which guards against the high summer temperatures. Then I put in this cricket food. Starved, they ate the food quickly, decimating the 8 cubes in 2 days. And guess what? They didn't die, probably because they were trained on this food.

I did notice that different cultures of crickets act differently. Subconscious selection, maybe. But the Fluker's crickets are straight escape artists. A bunch of them tried to escape. But they were also easy to gut load on this food.

The major chain brand crickets I buy tend to be super docile and don't move quickly. They die quickly too... which confuses my geckos when I switch between crickets.

And then my local petstore, has really active, but not escape-minded crickets.

Either way, Flukers crickets are pretty happy eating Flukers' products (no shocker), so when I cut down on the escaping cricket population, the rest of the population doesn't seem to mind as much to eat this food. Also, the mealworms I gave this to seemed pretty content to eat it as well. I don't really have complaints--except for Flukers for breeding escape-minded crickets. But the food worked for me.

They might want to consider making one that's not citrus flavored, though, so people with arachnids can also benefit from gut loaded insects. I read that arachnids hate citrus and there is a whole bunch of it in this product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Dubia
Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2022
I have been using this for my Dubia roach colony. It has been going VERY well! I have paired this with Cricket Drink with Calcium (also on Amazon), and my dragons are SO healthy from eating the roaches. I think this feeder really helped with that. Plus, it is much easier to feed them by just dropping in a few cubes every day. Between this food and changing them to a bioactive cage, I have very few dead roaches each week. Before I started feeding this food, I would have maybe 50 roaches a week die. But now I have maybe 5. Maybe. I did not realize how many I was actually losing each week, but I was buying roaches constantly, and also cleaning out the dead ones constantly. Now, I rarely have to pull out dead ones. So I think that this food REALLY helps.

They dry up within a couple days. If you keep alot of feeder crickets then you will go through a jar every week.
