How do you feed locusts to your lizards? I have real trouble as they jump out all over the place?  |

I presume you just drop em in the viv and let the lizzards do what comes naturally, i might be wrong tho as i don't keep lizzards.

No idea sorry. At the shop he only feeds beardies crickets,mealworms and the big fat grubs with a funny name ;Dalong with their greens. Crickets are just dropped in if that is any help.  |

When I was loooking after my friend's beardie I learnty not to open the box out of it's cage, I kinda just put the box in the cage, took the lid off, and took the box back out when they were all running around the cage  Might be easier to put the box in a plastic bag (without those little holes in the bottom) open the box, and let however many you want into the bag, then quickly close the box. OR maybe try grabbing the lucust(s) with tweezers? |

Tweezers is how they escape, coz I have to try and wedge them in, but I can't put them all in as I only need about 5 per day. It's really awkward. Thanks for the replies. :-)

Oh and I only have one so I don't need a lot. One box lasts a week.

The best way to do it is open the lid slightly in the viv an wait patiently until five come out. Or if you get a Kricket Keeper box they have a really small door in the top so you can easily put a pair of tongs in without anything escaping.

Thanks Shrimply, I'll try and get a Kricket Keeper box, I've seen before and thought they looked good.
