{"product_id":"zm-cricket-boost","title":"ZM Cricket Boost","description":"\u003cp\u003eCrickets are one of the best feeder insect choices for your pet reptile: They’re high in protein, low in fat, and conveniently available at nearly every pet store! However, they’re low in calcium and can be hard to keep alive at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeeding crickets a high-calcium, dry diet for 1-3 days (”gut-loading”) is the gold standard for improving their calcium content to at least a 1:1 calcium-to-phosphorus ratio (Ca:P). However, crickets need to stay hydrated to survive this gut-loading process. Reptile nutritionists advise against offering fresh fruit, vegetables, or the typical fruit-based jelly cups because they are more appealing than a high-calcium gut-load diet and can further dilute the insect’s nutritional value. After countless tests, trials, and formulas, we developed a calcium-fortified hydrating jelly that complements gut-loading, rather than detracting from it!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePair Cricket Boost with our new Bug Balance Gut-Load diet and dust feeder insects with supplements as usual. Cricket Boost is a high-moisture, calcium-fortified jelly that was designed to complement a dry gut-load diet. Due to its high calcium content (1% AF, 8% DM), it can help improve the Ca:P ratio of feeder insects on its own; however, a high-moisture diet has its limits and cannot offer the same potency of other trace nutrients in a concentrated dry gut-load diet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase lot has 36 units\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zoo Med","offers":[{"title":"Singles - 0.56 oz","offer_id":67574882697491,"sku":"097612028623","price":1.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Case Lot - 20.0 oz","offer_id":67574882730259,"sku":"097612401714-1","price":59.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0828\/9245\/6211\/files\/CT-106_097612008623_Cricket-Boost_7.jpg?v=1790891360","url":"https:\/\/allreptiles.ca\/products\/zm-cricket-boost","provider":"All Reptiles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
