crickets not eating gutload?

[chamillionaire3]

so i made my own gutload from apples, oranges, shredded carrots, and a little romaine lettuce. i froze it into cubes and put one of the cubes in the cricket bin a few days ago and it doesnt seem like they have been eating much of it at all.

I have been making the cubes aswell and my crickets are eating them dont forget the ammount that you blended up probably seemed loads compared to the ammount of paste you get at the end(well i thought so anyway) so there is alot in these cubes It just dosent look much

yeah and not only that but a few of the crickets got stuck in the goo and died lol. but now thats it dried out they seem to be eating it a little bit but not very much

I've never had a problem. Thaw them out before placing them into the feeders and only use as much as they can eat in a day or so to avoid mold.

I use one cube for 300-400 crickets and 1k+ dubia with a sprinkle of rasphey gutload and some bee pollen a day.
