    John,
    I have been working on this.
    I'm an RN and diabetes educator - work has been just-- crazy busy !

    I will have a rough draft soon.
    -I took out the photo of my tortoise
    -made a supplies list
    -I have pics to add ( feeding dish ideas , "Gerber Rice Cereal for the cricket food recipe, bag of cotton balls for supplying water )
    I would love to make a batch of food and take photos during the prep of the recipe-it would make the article longer but very complete , especially since it is important to make small amounts at a time to keep it fresh
    - I labeled the bins in a different color fonts in the article

    I was also thinking about taking the pics over?
    I could label the bins in the new photos w/ corresponding colors as in the directions with signs on them i.e. fork holes and bins and bin parts parts

    I'll work on it more over the weekend and a get a draft to you. How would you like me to get the draft to you , PM or in the forum feeding area?
    I do not have any thin skin. All constructive criticisms are respected and welcome regarding any topic. I took a beating recently on paper towel substrate and leaving my moreletii in my enclosure. If I can survive that on this really , really great forum; I can survive a little cricket rearing criticism! I'm looking forward to doing this for you as I have had tremendous success w/ the crickets reproducing, and in fact typically have more than I need. ( I should find someone to share them with, I usually give them to the birds ) It is really very simple, just a bit time consuming. Please let me know if you have any other ideas /anything else you would like me to include in the draft as I move forward.

    Have a great day, Lynn --- Snow in the Catskills this weekend -- imagine that !!!! Even a few flakes here on Long Island !

    Hi Lynn,

    You can PM it to me as an attachment, or use the email button to send me a message and I'll reply with an email. Thanks for the hard work. I know what it's like to be busy. I've had next to no time for the forum lately myself with real life commitments.

    Best,

    John
