I’m having problems catching my feeders!
My local pet stores are currently selling out of live food really quickly and, after driving around, I eventually got some very small crickets for my 10 slings on the third try.
The problem? I’m a locust guy. I like hoppers. They’re prettier and easy to catch when you lift the lid of the tub that they come in.
Seriously though, I can’t catch these small crickets with my tongs without killing them - which is fine for the really tiny two, which I pre-kill for, but not the other 8.
How are you supposed to get them out of the tub alive? And, if you actually manage this, into the slings’ enclosures before they break their legs off and escape?
