Giving in to feeding crickets again, eight weeks no food for Jardini ?

[Cabinetman 1]

Well it has been about eight weeks trying to pellet train my Jardini, but he absolutely won't touch the pellets. Now his tail is starting to look a little ragged, guessing no nutrition. Not sure what else to do, maybe try Krill but not sure if it is more nutrition than crickets. This is frustrating ?

Ever try trout or earth worms?

You know he use to eat nightcrawlers, I did try them a couple of weeks ago, but he wouldn't touch them. Haven't tried trout.

I might be confused but my memory of trout was really oily.

Also I would worry about parasites.

Well you can gut load the crickets so possibly the crickets would be more nutritional. Feed them the pellets before feeding the jar. You can also feed the crickets things like carrots, oranges, kale, spinach. But if you have pellets might as well use them.
