Exo Terra Cricket Pen, Black, Large

I own various sizes of Lee's Kricket Keepers and they don't even come close to the quality of this Exo Terra Cricket Pen. Both have the same identical removable ventilated lids with one major exception. Lee's feeder tubes slide into the TOP sides of the LID rather then the body of the Keeper / Pen like Exo's does. A BIG minus when removing the entire top off and handling three items / parts. Exo's tubes stay put, inside, leaving any Hobo cricks remaining inside the tube(s) with no way to escape. Another BIG difference between the two styles are the "Cricket (tubes) dispensers themselves, Lee's are round while the Exo's is square, which makes the EXO'S more stable all the way around and keeps pressure on the trays at their "bottoms" from moving out of place. Here are the BIG differences though: Lee's has these "Lame" round flaps that (suppose) to cover the tube opening when pulled out and almost all of the time they (the flaps) fall off! The Exo Terra Cricket Pen has a drop down "Flapper door" built into the the inside of the pen's sides NOT IN THE LID (like Lee's) that will never fail. Simply slide the tube out of the Exo Terra Cricket Pen and the flapper drops down very fast and automatically to prevent escapes and easily reopens when the tubes are reinserted. The Exo Includes both a cricket food tray, and a water tray, both with tapered steps for even the smallest "Pinheads" to scale, the "Lee's" does not provide any Gut Loading trays. EXO also included a black sponge to retain moisture in the water tray. Each tray slides in neatly on the opposite ends of the pen held in place by the (inserted) square tubes that keep the trays from sliding around. The trays can easily be removed for refilling and cleaning. A very nice touch! At the time of this review both where eligible for "Prime" with the Exo costing ONLY 22 CENTS MORE than the Lee's, it's easily worth even a few dollars more! Also the Exo has a nice shinny Black top cover and is manufactured with a thicker, higher quality plastic, than the Lee's. I'm going to purchase the Large Exo Cricket Pen next. P.S. I removed the sponge from the water tray and fill it with Fluker's Cricket Quencher

I needed to house and dispense live crickets to my gecko. The Cricket Pen does both very well. I am on my first batch of 40 crickets and after a week, everyone is healthy and no one has escaped. The large pen is appropriate for 50 adult or 100 small crickets. I have had a small Cricket Pen for months. It showed itself to be durable, but too small. Unless you enjoy a couple trips a week to the pet shop, I would go with the large size.

Se aprecia bien lo único que no me gustó es el tamaño, de resto un excelente producto

Great for my crickets to dust with calcium good quality

Consegnato puntualmente come sempre da Amazon, un oggetto ben fatto che risponde alla descrizione. Exo è un ottimo brand si vede anche da questa vaschetta che permette di semplificare l'alimentazione tramite grilli di rettili nel mio caso. Permette la gestione di insetti da pasto anche a chi "ha problemi" con il tatto...
