Everyone else who helped me with my feeder problem. For once I feel like I can visit a forum again without getting disgusted at all the BS going on. My mealworms seem to be doing one hundred times better, and I gave 500 3/4 crickets a shot today. They seem to be doing much better then any of the other past colonies I've tried to keep. I have worked out a system where I add new crickets every other day (which is the day after feeding) which should keep everyone gutted and ready to be munched on.

Thanks so much for all the help.
 
no prob man, i like helping as much as i can.. i am no expert but i know what has worked for me... you have the basics and can tweak em from there... make sure to keep the meal worm bedding dry so a good dry place in the house is good no need for a top ,as long and the amt of space between the bedding and top of contaioner is taller than them they wount be able to get out... do not let the crickets to hot past say 50 or so or they will die off and superworms seem to be very easy to overheat too but iv notice that at temps of 87 or better. mealies seem to take to the warm good but not overly hot.
but it comes down to knowing the basics and then finding out what works best for you,,, seems like something can work great for one person but suck for another LOL
