    I gotta say, I'm pleased with crickets

    my gecko stopped eating mealies, so I decided to try crickets, he LOVES them. Not only them, but the thrill of the hunt . Its way easier than mealies, I got one of those "kricket Keeper" things with the black removable tubes, oh man I love it. My question is, how do you look after them? Do you just buy commercially available "gut loading" cricket feed? And that gel water stuff? And do you just put these 2 things in like bottlecaps or something at the bottom of the enclosure?

    Re: I gotta say, I'm pleased with crickets

    It's ok! It's in the right place.

    And yes, just have two separate caps/lids in the container, filled with water cubes and the cricket gut load(looks like a grain mix). That's what I use for my roaches and they do great(they need a bit more protein though, so they get chicken laying mash).

    So you're good to go!
