you arn't gunna keep your crix in that are you??
Geez! Do you have a mass insectivorous reptile breeding facility??? That's huge! You can house up to 1000 crickets in a 10 gallon aquarium.
10 gal for 1000 crix!? no way, they are highly carnivorous! you'l end up with many dead quite rapidly.
ya
its on lets, so technicly the box itself is like 2 feet tall, and i re thought the lenght, its 4 feet wide too, and to answer ur question crestie, i dont ever want to buy crickets again(or not in a while), so im gonna buy 500, and hopefully they will lay some eggs, and such......thats all

Thats cool but when they lay eggs, you need to remove them and place them in another container. Read this article and check out the pics. Hope this helps!!! :D
