Crickets are a critically important prey animal in the diets of lizards, a pet tarantula and many more exotic pets. To keep your pet healthy, it is also important to keep the crickets healthy. Keeping crickets at home is a simple task, and the cricket habitat is very easy to maintain.

Details
To keep your pet's health in prime shape, it is best to take the crickets you buy at the pet store and bring them home to a small cricket habitat. Place a carrot in the habitat, and a small piece of wet sponge to provide the crickets with water. "Feed the food" means gut loading your crickets. The nutrition and vitamins the crickets consume are passed on to the pet reptile or arthropod. A calcium dust of the crickets right before feeding is very important to giving your exotic pet the calcium it needs. -
