only one way to find out lol.... and that many isn't too bad as Ive been told, you just see how many ya get after a few instars and let them cannibalize down to a manageable number? plus saves on food cost lol

i dunno...i just dont have the time to hand pick 1000-2000 little crickets and place them in that many containers....that would be horrible...a couple hundred would be about the limit

yep im def gonna find out...i was thinking the same...letting them cannibalize down, til i got a controlable number...sucks to do with something as precious as a T, but alot better than 1000-2000 babies, that have to be in seperate containers, and have to be individually fed and sprayed....uhhhh that wouldnt be fun....now if i was retired or didnt have a job or whatever, then yea id try and keep every one i could
