I really hope Pacatron would eat at least 1 or two... and roughly how long will the crickets survive in the tank... given that they are not food by then? And what should I do to keep them longer?
I keep mine in a plastic cricket keeper with the tubes the crickets crawl inside. And if you give them some food and that water gel stuff they should live their lifespan of several weeks i guess.
I only give mine 2 or 3 crickets every night. Hes about the size of a silver dollar, so i hope thats enough food. He has grown. I'm always hesitant to leave crickets in the tank with our frogs/lizard because they can bite. I dont know how often that happens though.
