baby crickets

[yungzerk]

I unfortunately ordered 1000 crickets in the wrong size so i guess im raising baby crickets now , if anyone has any tips or tricks to make them grow faster or to keep them alive longer let me know!

Keep them clean & with excellent air flow.

does reptisoil work as a substrate? i’ve tried using paper toweles before but since they’re so small they tend to go under and die but i’m keeping them in a big plastic tub with great airflow!

I would just keep the floor bare. That’s what I do. Much easier to clean.

i reordered the 1000 crickets in the correct size with some silkworms and i couldn’t be happier with how they came!

Dubia.com is a very good feeder website as long with framchams (silkworms) and rainbow mealworms for crickets!
