They are just REALLY loud at night lol.

Ohhhh trust me, you get used to it. I had to bag crickets when I worked at PetCo... at first I would pretend not to hear the call for crickets and a guy would get it... if I couldn't pretend to be busy, then I would ask a guy to do it... but eventually I just did it. they aren't so bad. The small ones aren't bad at ALL, the large ones can be creepy, they can pinch sometimes if they jump on your arm but otherwise you get used to it LOL

LOL. I can see myself doing that, too..

Honestly, I don't think I'd get used to it.. whenever I go walking in long grass, I FREAK out when the grasshoppers collide into my legg..... *Shivers*

On the other hand, maybe I would. But I'll have to wait til I'm moved out. My parents think reptiles are useless. lol

I have a Tokay Gecko and she eats crickets daily, bloodworms a few days a week and pinkies (baby mice) every other or every third week.

I think they're really cute! My Schnieder's Skink eats them about every other week (24 or 12)
