However, they’re low in calcium and can be hard to keep alive at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeeding crickets a high-calcium, dry diet for 1-3 days (”gut-loading”) is the gold standard for improving their calcium content to at least a 1:1 calcium-to-phosphorus ratio (Ca:P). However, crickets need to stay hydrated to survive this gut-loading process. Reptile nutritionists advise against offering fresh fruit, vegetables, or the typical fruit-based jelly cups because they are more appealing than a high-calcium gut-load diet and can further dilute the insect’s nutritional value. After countless tests, trials, and formulas, we developed a calcium-fortified hydrating jelly that complements gut-loading, rather than detracting from it!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zoo Med","offers":[{"title":".56 oz","offer_id":68038360957237,"sku":"112171-1","price":1.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0971\/8756\/1781\/files\/CT-106_097612008623_Cricket-Boost_7-450x450.jpg?v=1793808375","url":"https:\/\/chowhoundpetsupplies.com\/products\/zoo-med-cricket-boost-hydrating-jelly-cup-56-oz","provider":"Chow Hound Pet Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
