Anyone else use this and have problems?

I used Fluker's yellow to gut load my crickets, for awhile but this time when I did 60 or so just went belly up, now I had this happen before but in smaller numbers, I believe when I had some of the orange cubes in there for them. This time there may have been some Zilla green cricket drink in there leftover . I also saw our beardie get real lethargic for 2 days, so I figure if it's killing the crickets it can't be doing him any good either. I threw it out and had to get rid of the dead crickets, but the next day he's up running around like nothing happened. So is it possible this stuff doesn't mix well with other stuff and if not what's in it to cause such a thing to happen?

Does it have any nutrition other than calcium? I looked at it on their website; the quencher line of products are just for hydration. I'd still gut load with greens you'd normally give you dragon, and you can offer the calcium fortified along with it.

Personally, moistened RepCal Bearded Dragon Food makes a great gutload & source of hydration, greens are great for hydration, but contain very little nutrition.

I use bug grub which I buy online and is like a powder I occasioanlly chuck in some greens or veg. I also give them a small amount of bug gel for hydration and always dust crix with calcium before feeding

That's an awesome idea. Now my huge jug of food pellets won't go to waste. Lol

Well crap....I fed my crix flukers gutload and I fed my roaches that too! I think I now know the reason why I didn't hear them at all last night ._. Crap. I hope they haven't gone belly up. Taking the gutload outta my roach bit asap too.
