Lizards and guns wooooooo!!! feeding trick

I had this idea when i was tired of chasing crickets.

I had a couple empty boxes of wolf and brown bear 7.62x39 ammo laying around and i had a light bulb pop over my head!

I took the box and sat it in the crickets cage and waited for a couple of crickets to walk in.

then i picked up the box and poured them in the monitors cage.

Just thought some of you people that are tired of chasing crickets might try it.

Thanks for looking.

Re: Lizards and guns wooooooo!!! feeding trick

Watch out for the crix picking up nasty stuff in the box on the way though (lead for example)

I use a bit of egg crate, once they go on it, I simply shake it over a plastic cup, they fall in, those that don't, they crawl up on the next one in the cage.

Keep doing this until you have enough

Re: Lizards and guns wooooooo!!! feeding trick

true but the 7.62s are wrapped in paper so no contact is involved but i see where you are coming from. that is also a great idea. maybe I'll comprimise and put a plastic cup in there? with some egg carton at the bottom

Better safe than sorry, crix can be a bugger at times to catch. You know what they say, build a better mouse (cricket) trap and the world will beat a path to your door
