: Ahh! Last night I tried my glider with mealworms again and he wouldn't even go near the bowl. For a few nights now his dish has been almost empty so I figured if his appetite was up he might try the mealies. My idea failed miserably, as did the times I've tried live crickets. I think I'll go for a bottle of freeze-dried crickets now. Do they have the same nutritional value as live crickets? Amy and Jonesy

I would think that they would have the same nutritional value unless you were to want to gut load them with calcium first. I gut load my crickets then I freeze them. One more note. You don't mention your gliders age but my young gliders won't touch a bug until they are 4 months oop or older. I think that it is an acquired taste. :o) I hope that I never have to acquire it.
