    Default Favorite way to keep crickets?

    Hi all, I was wondering what your favorite way to keep crickets is. I don't culture my own.

    I was using Amazon.com: Lee's Kricket Keeper, Small: Pet Supplies

    It was functional enough, I just didn't really like how nasty the tubes got, and I could never seem to clean them well enough. I was just wondering what everyone's opinion on this was.

    Has anybody used this?
    Amazon.com: Exo Terra Cricket Pen Size: Small (5.9" H x 7.3" W x 4.6" D): Pet Supplies

    Maybe they are both pretty much the same thing, but I liked the look of the feeding wells of this one, and that the tubes go into the actual container.

    Tried the ExoTerra Cricket Pen (large and small) and also had issues cleaning the tubes, etc. Now use a medium ExoTerra Breeding Box for medium to adult crickets and the small for the little ones. Bottle caps serve as dishes and gut load with lettuce, carrots, oatmeal, and Repashy's Bug Burger. Good luck !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Thank you! That one looks nice too. You would think that they would make the tubes easier to clean. Doesn't take long for them to get nasty.

    I went with the exo terra breeding box. It is super nice! I think it will be much easier to keep clean without those tubes in the way like the previous one that I had. Thanks for everyones input!
