How Gut-Loading Works
Gut-loading is the practice of feeding feeder insects a nutrient-dense diet before offering them to your pet. When crickets consume Fluker's High-Calcium Cricket Diet, they absorb and retain those vitamins and minerals in their digestive system. When your reptile or amphibian eats the cricket, it benefits from both the insect's own nutritional profile and the enriched gut content, effectively doubling the dietary value of each feeding.
Feeding and Use Guidance
Offer Fluker's High-Calcium Cricket Diet to your feeder crickets prior to use as prey. Allow crickets adequate time to consume and digest the formula before feeding them to your pet. This ensures maximum nutrient transfer during feeding. Store the supplement according to packaging instructions to maintain freshness.
