It is great news!
Here is a copy/paste of the e-mail he sent out...
"""CricketFood.com is taking orders again
IT'S THE NOT SO GRAND REOPENING - HIGHER PRICES, LONGER DELIVERY TIMES, NOT REALLY A SALE, SALE =0\
Man, if only we could get politicians to be so honest… I have received...
Any particular reason?
Remmy, I am not so sure there is nothing to worry about.... Typically chameleons don't get tangled up in themselves to the point they struggle like that. Sure, tail around a leg briefly as they navigate, but it is always immediately corrected and should never...
Ronnie sent out a mass e-mail... He is not shutting down, but did increase his prices and the order process time/shipping will take longer. IMO it's great stuff, worth the extra $ and wait...
I started a few responses earlier, but when you edited your posts, mine seemed a little "off in left field", so I will try again...
I know, that is what I said.
Retinyl palmitate is the form derived from fish oil :-)
I agree. I am not looking for 1 single source, but rather a...

There is a difference between synthetic vit A and that obtained from natural sources.
Regardless, my point has not changed. I...
Pick up a good thermometer as those strip things...well, they suck! You really need an accurite basking temp reading... You can pick up an "Acurite" digital thermometer with probe from Wal-mart for around $12. I am currently using about 15 of them and when tested against my temp gun, they...
Great write up!
I have done lots-o-FF clutures and do pretty much what you do, except I use powdered sugar... and add a little spirulina and some bee pollen to the mix. Never used the mite paper though and thankfully haven't had any problems.
I am uncomfortable giving preformed vit-A via "human supplements" and have found that gutloading once a month with natural sources of preformed A like- cooked chicken (no seasonings or BBQ sauce LOL), fish oil, scrambled eggs (these are fantastic for a lot of reasons-amino acids) and even small...
I don't know that I would dust with it, but I do use it in gutloads and FF cultures- it is an ingredient in some of the commercially available gutloads, check labels.
