[QUOTE="DewDrop, post: 59180, member: 4217"] Great comedy. Gave me a smile. Thanks for sharing. Great info on here. It is just the cricket jumps and the A. Avic. catches it, seems like a better food for her to have the way she hunts and catches prey. I am not going to raise food for my Tarantulas, it is just a cleaner option to shell out the change to buy the half or bakers dozen than keep such a complex creature as a feeder around and actually breed them. My knowledge is too limited on the vast amount of things a cricket can carry and a ****roach can spread. I have no worries when I just buy the feeders, but getting a small population going of roaches and/or crickets is just too chancy for me. Even meal worms could pose a problem once they beetle. Those who have the know how and inclination with the experience can do the raising of the feeders, personally, I am not going to risk my lease, messing with it. I do not ever plan on selling my tarantulas or breeding them and there is a pet store within a couple miles to get crickets. So in my situation it would just be asinine to not go to the pet store, spend some time with the store parrot and get some crickets on the way out. Seeing the bird is well worth the cricket price.
