Air holes along the sides maintain airflow while keeping the insects contained. During warmer months the outer box may carry additional perforations for ventilation; in colder months a heat pack may be included to maintain suitable temperatures throughout transit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKeeping Crickets in Good Condition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo maintain nutritional quality between feeds, keep the crickets at room temperature away from direct sunlight and draughts. Offer fresh leafy greens, carrot, squash, or sweet potato regularly — these provide hydration and nutrients that transfer directly to your reptile at feeding time. Specialist gut-loading diets can also be used to further boost nutritional value. Remove uneaten food daily to prevent mould and keep the housing clean. Provide adequate space and hiding spots to avoid overcrowding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFarm-Bred and Gut-Loaded\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBred in controlled, ethical conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGut-loaded before packing to maximise nutritional content on arrival\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDispatched directly from the breeder for freshness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFarm-bred stock — not wild-caught\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eWell-maintained live food makes a measurable difference to your animal's health and digestion.
