ok, theres gotta be an easier way to go about this...
I just used a pair of tweezers to hold/catch crickets while i clipped off one hind leg to keep them from jumping. This was suggested to me as a mean of feeding my red eye tree frogs as they are housed in a live tank with lots of places for nasty little crickets to hide... I wanted to have an ability to also keep count of what they are actually eating also.
So, any suggestions besides tweezers and scissors. would it be helpful to freeze them for a moment to slow them down? I feel horrible having to do this for them
