The basic rule of thumb is to not feed more crickets than they can eat in 20 minutes. If there are any left in the reps environment after about a half hour, they should be removed.

With the number of dragons we have, we are buying from 400-600 crickets per week

And an update on the update:
The one who came to us not doing well ("Currently unamed") didn't make it. She passed away earlier today.

For all the fostering we do and having faced this many times in the past, you would think that these wouldn't affect me so much. But every time, it breaks my heart. But like Steve Irwin (the Crocodile Hunter) says, "It's nature's way."
