[QUOTE="dgerndt, post: 248211, member: 4480"] As I was checking on my scorpion, Lucy, the other day, I noticed possibly the only cute cricket I've ever seen. It was so tiny, it must be a pinhead. Upon closer inspection, there are more itty bitty crickets. I'm thinking, "this is awesome. Free feeders for my L2 cryptics!" But then the problem of sticking my hand into my scorpion's tank, rummaging around for crickets the size of melanogasters, pops into my head. She's not dangerous, technically speaking. But I still don't want to be attacked! Plus, how am I supposed to get those crickets out without squishing them? It ended up that I found a little cup that I used to get fly pupae in, and I used it to scoop out the little buggers. I just kept a close eye on Lucy, but she didn't seem to be phased. So, for now, free pinhead crickets for me! My cryptics seem to like them. :) [/QUOTE]
