Hello, I'd rather not have my Tailless Whip Scorpion get attacked while molting if it ends up happening due to a lost Cricket, what do you all suggest to do to find Crickets in enclosures?

Any pics of the cage ? Look for hiding spots .
Not a ton of hiding spots for Crickets, mainly cork bark. The Crickets I feed it are fairly small and hard to find because of the size of my Euphrynichus Bacillifer. Can I maybe use a piece of Carrot to lure out Crickets and see if any come out?

Worth a try.

Without pics, all I can say is use your eyes and find them. Honestly I’m not sure why you’re asking this question.

Instead of being rude you could have suggested using something to lure them out like a piece of Carrot as I came up with.

Check the enclosure at night with a flashlight.
I do, but I try not to too much as my infrared flashlight appears to bother it.

Rude is subjective number one.

I pointed out facts both of your post, and of my inability to understand your post.

That’s not rude at all, not at all.🤣🤮🙄

Two without any info (your post), all I would do is look and pick them out. That’s what I do, there’s no reason to lure for me. That’s how I find crix in enclosures which was your original question.

I don’t know why you need to lure them out because there’s no info provided in the OP 🙄

Any chance that you could post pics of the enclosure?
Clearly you’re being rude as well because I mentioned the lack of images that actually enable better responses. What a crazy damn idea.
