The reason people breed crickets specifically to feed to their pets is because wild ones could have chemicals or pesticides, or even worse diseases or nasty work parasites that are longer than a pencil

I actually fed my gecko some crickets and they laid eggs in the substrate, I don’t normally leave food in I usually feed with tweezers but I was going away and had nobody who would do what I do with feeding they’d only do the water. Fast forward 2/3weeks I have baby crickets and they didn’t stay in the viv, so are they gonna survive? I hope not. I dealt with the ones in viv and froze the substrate, but as for the house 😩 it’s very warm in the house too during this heatwave in the U.K.

Is it safe to use a heat mat under a massive plastic bin where I house all My crickets or will it catch fire , I don’t have a thermostat and I’m not sure , but as you said you need additional heating for maximal results and to speed up the process . Also I have all adult crickets in the bin with plenty of food and hydration but because they are all adults , how do I know what to do about when they will lay eggs and stuff ?
