Cricket feeding

[Sage]

How do you feed crickets in a big screen cage? I know some people put the crickets in a bowl?

Just throw em in there.

I agree, free range those suckers!

I personally dump the amount of crickets my little guy will eat in a few min into a cup. Dust them. Slowly move the cup into the cage just below wherever my guy is, show him the insides for a few seconds and then dump them out onto one of the thicker branches.

Seems to work well for me.

Never tried cup feeding mine.

Me neither, though i do see the benefits to doing it that way.
I just prefer the more natural way.

Free range all the way.

If you ever try it, make sure the cup isnt clear bc your cham can sit under it and shoot at the container bruising his/her tongue.

Ya, you get to watch the crickets and them eating them.

I cup feed and free range. The crickets go in the cup & some jump out anyways.. the fruit flies I obviously free range.. the worms go in the cup as well..

I have a little one prob 2 inches w/out the tail and i have him in a 36 inch tall enclosure, I've noticed that when he can't find flies or is probably tired of searching for it, he'll swing by the cup and check if anything's inside..
