Pinheads and small crickets need good nutrition to grow big and become feeder insects, but in the early stages a fancy premium diet is wasteful and unnecessary. Until they are young adults, all that your small crickets and pinheads need is a good quality food that they like to eat in order to grow bigger, faster!
This pinhead diet will get your baby crickets growing strong! Pinheads are very tiny and require a very basic diet. We've created this basic diet your pinheads will enjoy which means they eat lots and grow into big, healthy, breeders and feeders!
When your crickets become the right size for breeding, switch to our premium cricket food, and for feeder crickets, give our premium gut-load for maximum nutrition for your lizard, sugar glider, spider, preying mantis, or whatever insectivore you are feeding.
Lots of research, trial and error, and help from our lizard “Lily” (and the pinheads) went into this mix and we're very pleased with our results. See the difference for yourself!
