Also, I'm not sure if Eric has lived in both Vancouver area and Montreal as I have (well Victoria and Montreal for me) so he might not realize that Vancouver only has pretend cold. I've let my crickets drop to 4 or 5C and they still live, they don't do a lot of breeding at this point, but they stayed alive. He's spot on about the cricket size you want though. Your frog probably won't be able to eat them once they are at the chirping stage, so get the smaller ones. You'll only hit the chirping stage if you plan to breed them.
HAHA! Good point. I know our weather here is crazy! My wife Sara lived in Victoria and loved it! And it is indeed a Hyla cinerea (AGTF for the lazy like me). And you are right about the size of crickets. Mine will not eat anything bigger than a 2-3 week crickets.

Just read your comment to Sara and she laughed. It's currently 3 degrees this morning in Montreal, and she said it's about as cold as it gets all year in BC.
