OK...question for you all.
I've been in reptiles for 15 years however am fairly new to cricket eating animals. I have finally established my leopard gecko colony and have decided to change over from 8 dozen crickets a week from Petco to 500 delivered via the mail. When I received them, I dumped the 500 in a 55 gallon tank along with egg cartons to hide in and food and a watering system.
Then I thought...now what? How am I supposed to catch the 8 dozen I need a week for feeding?
So...I've decided to stay with the Petco system for now...however, I still have these 500 crickets to deal with.
Therefore...I've decided to take about a half dozen of my really good eating youngsters and put them in the tank and just let them gorge. Of course I would never do this with mice/rats and snakes which I've dealt with in the past, but does anyone see any concern with this idea?
Thanks...I appreciate the advice.
