has anybody noticed any difference in ant consumption of crickets and other feeder insects based bug off the diet you give them? i feed my crickets pineapple and other foods occasionally and it seems the ants are more voracious when it comes to consuming the entire meal if the feeder has been fed food recently. not sure if there is any truth to this maybe its just a timing thing. or maybe its because the crickets seems to be more plump and juicy once they have had a meal. i like to hear people weigh in.
