[QUOTE="Dave Jay, post: 126594, member: 27677"] Yeah, baby spinach is a favourite of crickets. I add a tiny bit into my enclosures when I add the crickets so they are less likely to harass the inhabitants. Of course it is removed the next day along with the cricket if not eaten. I'm not sure if you were meaning feeding it to crickets or superworms.Superworms aren't readily available here atm , but I can tell you mealworm beetles eat spinach but the worms not so much. Btw, only the green parts of potatoes are poisonous, the white flesh is ok, but not terribly nutritious. Carrot is generally a staple for feeders but variety is important imo, I make sure I have carrots on hand at all times , but most our the vegetable and fruit scraps are fed to crickets, mealworms and roaches in my house. Be sure to wash fruit and vegetables thoroughly to remove any traces of pesticides. [/QUOTE]
