Not perfect but pretty good for the price

Good: Delivered quickly, quite large, our B Dragon cricket extraction and feeding system works well, fairly easy to clean. Not so good: one part broke on delivery (we got it fixed on time anyway, so no big deal), it's relatively cheap plastic so you have to be careful with that. All in all it's a good system and not bad for the money, but it won't last for years.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Nice cricket handle but small plastic doors are brittle.

I bought this item to provide crickets for my bearded little Chito. There is more than enough space to house at least 60 small creatures. I think this pen is better than other brands of pens I have had before. However . One of the small plastic doors for one of the pipe holes was broken. I sealed this hole with duct tape and just don't use hose (3 hoses seems to be enough at the moment) to avoid risking any escaping crickets. That issue aside, this product seems to get the job done perfectly. I

Arrived damaged in Reptiles and Amphibians

I was so excited when it arrived because I received my live crickets a few days ago. When opened, the cricket handle was so cracked that it came loose. So I reassembled it and sealed it with clear tape. It was impossible to return it because I had live crickets at home. I couldn't figure out how to notify Revane because I didn't want a refund, I wanted to keep this until another one was sent. But I don't feel like I have to pay for another one. I must be returned undamaged at no cost to me. The

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Big and Bulky

Not for small streams or tall substrates

This is definitely an improvement over the design of Lee's Cricket Keeper which is prone to breaking thinner plastic parts like pipe caps but has its own design flaws. If you're holding a lot of crickets, egg crates, or other surface-increasing substrates, lift the corner of the tubes to give the "wings" some clearance over the tubes. Small to medium sized crickets can climb pipes and escape easily, I was so anxiously convinced the other day. I removed the hoses and sealed the valves from the…

Pros
  • Good build
Cons
  • Some bugs

Great for not messing around with crickets

We got our first bearded dragon this year and need to have crickets on hand for daily feeding. I'm not a big fan of crickets, to me they're in the same category as roaches, so dealing with them is terribly disgusting. This system not only simplifies the keeping of the crickets, but also the feeding times. Just take out the tube (each tube has a lot of crickets because they like to climb in), you can shake calcium powder or supplements directly into the tube, and then empty the tube into the…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Not as good as it says

Great Insect Keeper

This is the best insect keeper I currently own (I have three). I bought a big one so the crickets can't escape so easily. The square tubes had ribs on the inside to make it easier for insects to get in. I also put some whistles in the dubia cockroach bin because even dubia can get stuck in the whistle. Of course I don't put Daby in this container because they prefer it dark. However, it is much easier to feed our bearded dragon with this product. It's also good to have bug food. I threw away…

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Vulgarity
