Cricket (How cold can they get before they die?)

[Hannah Wilbanks]

When I kept several dozen crickets at a time, I had to close them in a wardrobe in our spare room b/c the chirping drove my husband nuts. We didn't use the room, and therefore didn't heat it, it stayed anywhere from 57-60 degrees in there and they did fine.

I think they should be just fine in that cold of weather. I've seen them live in the 40s and when in even colder weather some did stop moving but a few minutes in a warmer environment and they perked right up! I've also put them in the freezer and even after being in there for 10-15 minutes and throwing them in a cage, sure enough a few minutes later I would see it jumping around. They are pretty hardy.

Thanks for the response, everyone. I just don't want to buy 25 dollars worth to wake one morning to a bunch of dead crickets.
