My crickets were ESCAPING !!

I have 2 juvenial White's Tree Frogs and bought 50 small-sized crickets at a local pet store. It was a tight fit, but not terribly overcrowded. I provided them with food and water as recommended, and kept the tubes out except when looking to grab some for feeding (there are flaps here that should stay closed and be more secure than keeping the tubes in). Within TWO DAYS over HALF of my cricket population had escaped. I am now facing the real possibility that my landlord will fine me over the 25+ crickets loose in my apartment who have all the possibility in the world to reproduce and make an ongoing cricket population. I went to put the remaining crickets in the fridge to kill them off as a last ditch effort to control the situation and watched one jump straight through a ventilation hole in the top. Why make a cricket pen that doesn't hold in crickets??? Does contain dubia roaches nicely, but I do not recommend for any time of bug that can JUMP.

Good enough to buy load until feeding time

I like this as a storage for the crickets I buy at the store. It is definitely very small, too small for breeding purposes but good enough to gut load your crickets

I like this as a storage for the crickets I buy at the store. It is definitely very small, too small for breeding purposes but good enough to gut load your crickets a day or two before feeding to your reptiles.

Size

Love, the tubes makes it so easy for the crickets so I can get them in by Frederick. They stay alive. They’re healthy happy until I feed Frederick.

This is a great cricket keeper for a small amount of tiny crickets. We just need a few crickets every now and then to feed a Venus flytrap so this size cage was perfect for that. If you need more crickets or larger crickets I would suggest going a size up because this one is very small
