Houston, we have pinheads!

After spending FAR too much money on feeder insects, and hearing the feeder crickets chirping up a storm, a few weeks ago I gave them a lay box, and moved it outside in a nylon hose screen covered container to incubate (well, at least to be in the '80s during the day, since that's what it is around here now).

And, as of this morning, we have pinheads! A bit small for my frogs right now, but hopefully, we're on the way to having a sustainable feeder population :).

Very cool! I've purchased small crickets before and they were always silent, but recently I purchased some adult crickets and man do they chirp a lot!
 
It's a definite difference. When the frogs got to adult size cricket, all of a sudden, it started sounding like a swamp around here. Not only do the crickets chirp, but the frogs started croaking more, too. It's probably a good thing snakes are quiet!
