    Ya that cricket was one of the bigger ones on there. If they get bigger than the distance between Kirby's eyes I usually take them out, dust them, and put them in our lizards cage. That cricket I think just looks big in picture. The really small ones can almost fit the through the miss! Lol

    So ya I always keep an eye on crickets.

    So should I change his substrate to white paper towels? So it might be easier to find poop? I might give him a warm bath before like some ppl said....

    Thanks everyone for the help!

    The paper towel set up is often used for quarantined or sick animals. It makes it easier to control their environment and monitor them. You know for sure when they poop or if they eat their food (nowhere for the crickets to hide). It can be a little stressful for them having their environment changed though. The warm soak is definitely a good idea. I usually give mine a good soak once a week. It keeps them clean and gets off any left over shed. They know when it's bath-time, lol!
