Tiny Cricket / Medium Cricket

[Kidatl]

I ordered some tiny crickets and they are tiny for sure. My cham is on medium crickets. How long until the tiny get to medium size?

Well it depends how you house the crickets. They need food( apples, carrots, tropical fish flakes, veggies, etc) and water which should be in a sponge for them to not drown. Given this and the right temp then it should be a few weeks. Good luck!

About two weeks if well cared for and you are rotating bins to clean out the dead ones... You want to use a variety of fresh veg from this image or buy a commercial gutload to feed them like repashy bug burger. Make sure they have toilet paper rolls or cardboard egg carton to crawl on.

tropical fish flakes,

Feeders should never be fed fish food. See image above for proper gutloading providing a variety of fresh veg.

I don’t think they’re going to grow very much before you finish feeding them off or they die off. Just feed extra of the ones you have and order larger crickets next time.

Im not talking about gut loading tho. Im sorry I got confused with breeding. Thanks for the heads up!

Still you should not give anything to crickets other then the items from that imgae. No fish food and no dog food. Anything like that you have heard of. You do not want these things passing from the crickets to your reptile. So if you are breeding and raising them you should still give quality items to them as if you were gutloading them.
