Review on πŸ¦— Exo Terra Cricket Pen - Small Size: 18 cm x 14 cm x 11 cm (7 inches x 5.5 inches x 4.3 inches) by Nadia Miller

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works great and cheaper than the pet store.

Works great and $5 less than 4 pet stores within a 50 mile radius of us. 4 stars because plates of food and water slide around and I had to take the crickets out and tape them in place. Easy to fix but if they were fitted it would be ideal, the tape would need to be redone as it has been washed repeatedly. This is our first reptile to take care of, so we're still learning. If you're feeding crickets, you definitely need something to keep them at home from the pet store. We have a small keeper that will fit a decent amount of crickets. We currently keep a maximum of about 30 small ones in it. If I was keeping more or needed the same amount of large crickets at once I would probably go for the larger Keeper size. Advantages of Cricket Keeper: - You don't need tongs/tweezers to feed as the crickets climb up the pipes and you use them to toss the crickets into the cage. - Comes with a food and water bowl to care for the crickets - The water bowl comes with a small sponge so the bowl can be filled without drowning the crickets. - The detachable lid makes it easy to carry crickets or clean the holder. Disadvantages: - The food and water bowl is not fixed in the holder. Crickets kept breaking out between the bowl and the walls of the container. I don't know if they're all made that way, I just used double sided tape to tape them in place and it worked much better.
