In preparation, I bought a 50 qt. rubbermaid container, and have collected egg cartons and toilet paper rolls from around the house and garbage. These are good as it gives all the crickets a place to stand, instead of standing on each other.
This morning I found the soldering iron in the garage and used it to melt a bunch of small holes in the lid of the container. The crickets will be safely contained, but won't sufficate. I already had cricket food and 'cricket water'. You shouldn't give them real water, as they will drown. Cricket water is a gel that satisfies their needs, without risk of drowning.
I guess I'm ready for the crickets to arrive, and Hiss will have a feast tonight!
