Zilla Gut Load Cricket Drink with Calcium, Safe Hydration for Crickets, Tarantulas, Scorpions, Feeder Insects like Crickets, Mealworms, and Dubia Roaches, 16 fluid ounces

This is great for Dubia. I use it in my colony cage and in my feeder cage. It works extremely well! Way better than pillows or the water crystals. It is a little expensive, but not too bad if you can find a sale. Plus, the other options for dubia are annoying to deal with. This is simple: you just dump some into the little mesh boat with some Cricket feed and it’s perfect! A little bit lasts for a few days. I use this with the orange cricket food, also here on Amazon. I would say I drop a tablespoon or a two every few days. There is another version of this that is green, and gut loads the dubia (that I feed to my bearded dragons). I do like both versions, though.

This brand tends to be my favorite, been using it for years now. And this was a great price!

This looks like green jello for crickets. It has stayed well preserved not in fridge. It does dry out quickly within 48 hours in cricket tank stored next to very warm lizard terrarium lighting if they don't eat it first but I imagine that they probably shouldn't be eating after 48 hours anyway? The crickets do seem to eat it although I also supplement with grapes, oranges and potatoes. I have no idea if it is in actuality gutloading crickets with calcium...but I have no reason to think it isn't. It was excellent value compared to pet store prices. I would buy it again.

Works. A great innovation for bug pet owners. Minimal, if any scent to this stuff.Have been using a little spoon to dish it out, the blue stuff clings (it is NOT sticky though) to both sides of the spoon and then your fingers or whatever it touches if you're not careful.So wish the container/jar was a better design to make using it easier, maybe?But interesting stuff. It does what it says and makes hydration easier, cleaner.

So we live down the street from a pet store, and our access to crickets was pretty unlimited. Or so we thought... When all of the Coronavirus quarantining and shut-downs happened we had a harder time getting crickets, so when we DID get them, we had to start getting more at once and keeping them alive longer.There was a rough trial and error period, but we ended up figuring out that this gut-load and the Flukers orange cubes worked well together for the best results. (And the Flukers seem to go on sale on here regularly! Yay!)We use little catering condiment dishes to store the goop/gel in, and then throw em out if they get gross. We seem to change them every few days depending on how many crickets we're storing, or once the goop/gel start to dry out.Our leopard gecko seems to be much happier, and the crickets stay alive for a week or two and haven't resorted to cannibalizing each other!Definitely pleased with this green stuff, so I hope it works for you as well!If this review or the pictures have helped your decision at all, please let me know! Your feedback is appreciated!

Bought this for my dubia and hisser roaches. I usually give them flukers orange jelly cubes but they are so pricey and get eaten up really fast. This Zilla jelly is much cheaper, lasts longer, and my isopod cleanup crew loves it too. I will be purchasing this from now on for my bugs.

THANK YOU!!

For reference: We keep our house around 76-77°F year round, and low humidity due to the environment we live in.Pros- the gel stays hydrated quite well. Easy to rehydrate with water every morning allowing us to get a lot of use out of a small amount. I replenish gel every 4-7 days depending on number of crickets (usually 50-75), amount placed in enclosures and temperature.One jar lasts about a month and keeps most of the crickets alive for the geckos to munch on. (Subscribe and Save)Cons- if I try really hard, I still can't imagine one.Unknown- I keep this in the fridge once opened as I haven't left a previously opened jar closed up on the counter to see if it goes bad, but a different company's product was covered in growing mold in less than 3 days when left unrefrigerated, so I'm not ready to risk losing product. If I do try it, I'll update.I recommend this, and a recommendation from an unknown individual online is basically the best advice you can get. Update: it stores outside the fridge perfectly well.

The crinkets go crazy over this stuff. More so then the other brand I used. They also seem to stay alive alonger which is saving me money. So all around EXCELLENT JOB!!!

my local stores have been sold out for months. don't know why. arrived quickly from amazon.product as expected.crickets drank it.gecko ate crickets.everyone wins.

arrived fast and cheaper than a pet store

C'est bien, par contre ce produit est porter a sécher et rester en petit cube de gélatine. C'est la première fois que je voix ça...un peu bizarre.

Great product
