Let's Talk Crickets...Dozens Of Crickets !


Sometime ago I wrote about my Son's 
He is gentle and loving and...
eats live crickets.




Okay, let's talk about those crickets...
This is the cricket container.
Crickets love to hide.
The two black tubes are perfect hiding places
for dozens and dozens of crickets.
When you want to feed Doo-Rock -
you just remove one of the tubes and shake
out a couple crickets.

This cricket container can hold 
SEVERAL DOZENS of crickets...
we're talking 50 + crickets here !




There is also a piece of cardboard egg carton
in the cricket container.
Crickets hide in it's crevices by the dozens.
(yuck !)

But wait, did you notice there are only two 
crickets in this container ????
I'll bet you think they are hiding in the tubes
or maybe comfortably tucked away 
under the egg carton ??

Oh, I wish this were true !
One of my kids dropped the container
and ALL of the crickets are now resting
comfortably in the crevices of my home !!
(I won't say which daughter or son,
because I didn't actually see it happen
and no one is fessing up !)





They are resting comfortably,
by day...
the night is a different story !!

They only come out at night...
(sounds like a horror movie !)

Actually it sounds like a 'camp out' 
at night.  They sing and chirp like it 
was a mid summer's night ;)

Just another day at our humble home ;)
