Odd story. So, we bought our baby 500 pinhead crickets from Armstrong. That is the smallest order I could make. The problem is that the pin heads seem so small he can't even see them. He won't eat them. So we decided to order a bit bigger, that 500 cricket order won't come for a few days. In the mean time I was at a reptile expo and needed to buy him some food, the minimal I could buy was 100 crickets.
I can't release them because that is money gone and more importantly, I am paranoid about introducing a new and potentially invasive species (I'm a bio major).
I have a friend with a pet praying mantis, so she will get some, but other than that I have no idea what to do.
I know this an odd question, but how do you guys deal with so many crickets? Is there a way to order fewer of them? I worry so much about where I get them (I learned of Timberline and Armstrong from reptiles magazine). I don't want to get crickets from just anywhere due to the virus going around and I want to make sure that Spock's crickets come from a reputable source that has researched their stock and their effects on reptiles.
I hope this hasn't been asked before, I tried to search about and didn't see anything.
Thank you guys for your patience (from both Mr. Spock and myself)
