How do you stop these guys from nipping eachother. I know I am feeding them enough, but they still continue to nip eachother. In two days I have six out of 14 with tail nips.

I had these rock decorations in the cage that had small holes in the bottom, which apparently allowed crickets to hide. I walked in and caught two crickets knawing on one of the babies tails. I immediately removed the decorations and the babies, doctored the tail of the baby that was being gnawed on, and cleaned all of the cages thoroughly. I put a piece of drift wood and rocks in the other cages where crickets could not hide. I will from now on feed the babies in a seperate container just to be sure. I feel awful right now.
Fairly certain they are talking about a Dust buster.EclpsPrinc":3e2ivi1u said:What's a bug sucker gun? I need one of those!
