:First let's say that i keep at separate boxes various ages of crickets. Second:there is always(underlined) quality food in the boxes. The food consists of 5 different igredients and it's dry. I never keep two different date born crickets at the same box. Third:i've observed cannibalism. Because every box has food any time, they don't eat each other because they are hungry. They don't have anything missing from their diet. The food(i'll say again) is mix of 5 different dry ingredients, so, there's no possibility of boring the food. I believe that when they taste another cricket, they like so much the meet that they refuse the mix food that is always in their boxes. Then the Crickets become carnivores. The cannibalism in my case (with separate boxes) is something that i can't control right now. If anyone has the same separate-setup and has the same problem, let's see what we can do.
