Review: Great product for easy insect keeping and dispensing - This is a great and very useful item for anybody with a pet that needs to be fed insects, particularly crickets. I use the large size it makes emptying out the plastic containers insects typically come packaged in the shops and also means that I can place plenty of fresh food for the crickets so they are gut-loaded before they are fed to my gecko. I tend not to use the trays supplied as I prefer to use fresh fruit and vegetables to feed the crickets but they are good for dried food, water gel or the sponge can be used if you need to use water but I found it tricky getting these out again when there were still crickets in the tank; you could maybe attach strings or something to pull them up to make it easy. The tank is easy to clean with few parts for muck to get stuck in but the tubes are best cleaned out using a bottle brush. I've had very few problems using this, the tubes are ideal particularly when you are adding a calcium or vitamin powder to your pet's food as all you do is shake a few of the insects out of the tube, into a plastic bag and add the powder and shake the bag out into your pet's tank. I don't remove the clear cap ends as I see no need to and there are no replacements if I lost or broke any of them if I were to remove them. Overall, this is great for people who have pets who need insects to eat but who prefer to keep the contact with the insects to a minimum and have few escapees!
Review: Well designed and made - makes feeding our little Dragon easier. - This is a great product. I am please I bought this one of another popular brands. The big difference is a simple one....the direction the flaps open. This one has the hinges so the open into the Pen which means the instects cannot jump out. The other Pen you can get is hinged so it opens on the outside. Its nice and big and and I easily got 50 XL locust into it. All I need do is look down the tube through the clear caps and if there are any Insects in then you can tip some cricket powder in to coat the insect and then shake the critter into the Viverium. Highly recommended. The only niggle is the the hatch on the top is a little small so tipping in the Hoppers from a tub is tricky.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Escapee crickets!!
*by M***R on 5 October 2025*

Works great for storing crickets and locusts for our leopard gecko! Great quality! Could be better with the tubes caps and should probably be a different colour rather than clear…. Hadn’t noticed one wasn’t on as it’s clear = 80 crickets escaped into our house 😂
