I don't have the original post anymore, but I think this portion was from
Julie:
<< Thanks for sharing your vitamin supplement
info. Also, clean bins make a big difference in cricket health, I clean
mine every 1-2 weeks. I also put in dark leafy greens on a regular basis
and leftover greens that we were going to throw away anyway. I also put
in oat bran, which the crix really seem to eat well, and wheat bran (not
as much). Also carrots. That seems to be a simple mix and I always have
plenty of healthy crix with this
diet.

Julie -
How much oat bran and how much wheat brad do you use for your 1000
cricket container? Do you have the bran in a jar lid or scattered on the
bottom of the container?
I think we are getting in way over our heads in trying to purchase
crickets in quantity, but I need clarification before I go and do this.
If we order 250 - 3 week old crickets for three leopard geckos who might
eat 196 a month, how do you clean out the cricket cage every 1-2 weeks?
Will these 3 week old crickets be the size of 7 week old crickets at the
end of that month? If so, they will be too big for our juvenile geckos to
eat.
Again, thanks for your help,
Becky
