Boycotting crickets!

[Lynn57]

So Antwon has decided that crickets don’t agree with his palate any longer and is refusing to eat them. He loves the BSFL and only wants to eat them as well as he will take waxworms, silk worms or superworms. (I only give him one of them a day for a treat)
I know that BSFL are an excellent food item and easy for me to obtain. Do you think I should cater to him and just leave the crickets out of his diet? He was raised on them and hadn’t had the variety he is now getting from me.

So, imagine you've only been fed one thing; all your life! Then, all of a sudden; a whole new world of food was thrown at you! ... Would you go back to the same thing right away?

It's ok to leave crickets out of the menu; especially when they have other options. Maybe try to throw some crickets back in after a few weeks; and see if it makes him interested again.

West Coast Canadian; So, so eh!?? Sorry...

Plus BSFL are so much easier to keep!! And then when they turn into flies … he is going to love it !

You can omit it out for some time. I did that with my chameleon with Dubia roaches.
