I killed the pinheads by accident, apparently battling 200 crickets with a pair of tweezers results in some casualties. These little buggers are difficult to manage, I have a method now, I put a small vial in the cricket box and leave it in until a few crawl in and then take it out. I really don't want crickets all over my house. Both have eaten by now, the LP keeps knocking them down as soon as I drop them in the enclosure, keeps cruising around like a tiny eight legged tank. I am in awe, these creatures are amazing, when I picked them up it was actually the first time I ever see a tarantula in real life.</p></blockquote><p></p>
