Well after I get back from my honeymoon I'm getting a beardie because my soon to be wife has fallen in love with them at our LRS, and it means more reps for me!
But I keep thinking of things that caresheets don't tell you... Ill put more up if I think of any but just one that springs to mind is,
When you dust crickets, do you dust them in the cricket tub then chuck them in? |

Get a Cricket Keeper too. Sooooooo much easier than chasing the little bu**ers around the room because they've jumped out of the tub the wrong way  . |

Yeah I was thinking of getting one of those, they work then?
I'm also thinking I might use one of my spare vivs to feed him in, with nothing in it so it will be easy to see all the ones he doesn't get.
Plus it's white conti board so its even better! lol. |

| Well I'm back from honeymoon and I've got my beardie, but omg feeding him is such a pain, he seems to not really care about crickets, at one point there was one sat on his nose, and he just closed his eyes! couple that with Sid striking, constricting, then letting go and leaving the last two weaners... GRRRRRR. |
