Need Help!!

That's a long time. If you can get someone to look in on them and change water every few days, maybe dump in more crickets, that'd be best. Not great to just have tons of crickets wandering around in there, bothering them, and drowning in the water dish, but it's the lack of clean water that'd be main issue. They'll be pooping and peeing and muddying water, possibly tipping it over. Is there a friend, family member, or neighbor you'd trust with that? They'd only have to stop by 3 times maybe. Or even better, someone who could watch them at their house.

Ill see if my parents can take care of them till i get back.

That would be cool. Really wouldn't be much for them to do, but I'd think lots of peace of mind for you.

I'd be lost, but I made my bf promise to come over and at least change water if something happened to me. Had to leave my kitten for 2wks 3 years ago and had everyone going by to check on her. Now with another cat and two toads, I've decided that I can never go anywhere and nothing can ever happen to me again. And that's that.

Well my parents can't take care of them, so i am either going to have to find a way to take them with me or let them go.

Oh no! well hang on, heather's ideas were good. They'll survive even if they muddy their water... the little crickets aren't the big biters, it's the bigger black ones i think. if they eat them all, they won't starve to death. They can go a while without eating.
10 days is a long time, but not impossible.

They are the "large" crickets from petsmart, and ill find some worms and sow bugs and put them in there as well. Ill also change the water and mist the cage before i go.

[TrymNois]

And i have also been feeding them really well lately so i hope they will survive.

Hello Mitchell! 10 days is pretty long time, can you check with friends or other near family members? Good luck !
