":i feed mine just on grapefruit and then i supplement them "

If "we are what we eat" then aren't you worried you're feeding empty food to your lizards? How nutritious could those crickets be, fed only one type of watery fruit?
If you think about it, in the wild, bugs eat a wide variety of things. Captive raised crickets are only as good as what you put in them. Yours are hollow little straws filled with nothing but some Vit. C? hahaha j/k
No, really, I fed my crickets a more balanced diet than I eat, because they were going into a hatchling rudi, who at the time, only ate crix. So I was really concerned what went into those crix! She grew fast and well.
Just some thoughts. D.
