see know if i found a cricket in m shoe i would freak out, having the fat black crickets in an attempt to fatten my beardie up is horrible, i hate those damn crixs im no better with locusts, both are evil, locusts cling to your skin and crixz jump and then run away.

thugh i tihnk my fear of crixz may have started when i broughthe bulk bag not expecting it to be an actual bag of crix and me being a d*ck cut it open down the middle never ever buying bulk bags again nor am i going to open it like that again should have warnings on the sides saying most literally bag of crickets dont be dumb and open it from side crix jump out at you so you to jump and run away screaming

I hate it whe crickets get out, i'm ok feeding them but I woke up with one n my face once and I screamed like a girl.

And my cats no good he's terrified of them, he runs the other way and I'm left rounding up crickets.

I don't think crickets smell personally, I think its cos their kept in bran and mix that with cricket faeces you get smelly mush

LMAO reading some of the posts. My son 'rescued & released' about 500 of mine into our rear garden last year, lol. The neighbourhood sounded really nice at night, although some of the neighbours didn't think it was so nice & some didn't talk to me for some of the summer but I was forgiven when they knew my son generally hides them under his bed so they cannot be eaten and this was his first real 'rescue'. He calls them his pets and so far this week we have about 100 sow bugs he has captured from the garden in order to 'save their lives' incase I want to use them for the animals, lol, he is 6 btw but loves the crickets. I hate the black crickets and have always found them to be nasty and have been bitten many times by the horrid little things, I am quite fond of the brown ones though as they are far more placid and I have never been bitten so its a couple of hundred blacks for the animal, one tub of brown to keep my son happy, lol.
