small vs medium crickets...

[Scooter]

Butter, my veiled boy is now about 4 months old. The small crix seem so little for him, and he was eating like 15 a day......but the mediums look so big. He doesn't like to eat when anyone is nearby, so I rarely get to see him hunt and eat. He also gets a few wax wormies a week, and eats those when I'm not looking too.

I bought medium crix yesterday to try out and put four or five in his enclousure this morning. I don't see any now, but the cage is thick with plants. I shook the plants a bit, and didn't see any fall....

Am I just being a paranoid chameleon mommy ?

When did you switch from smalls to mediums ?

If you order from reptilefood.com there are 9 different sizes...you might be able to find a more suitable size there.

Can't get shipments of crix until weather turns cooler. It is over 100 and no one to take shipment into the house....

When i have high or too low of temps here i just have them shipped to my work.
