Maryland Cave crickets are gross and huge.. and they live in our basement. Today Evie found one in the living room and said "Hi!!" Then she became scared, and I had to grab it and put it in her Critter Jar. So now we have a new pet... Chripy II* aka Mr. Cricket. I put him in Evie's critter jar with the intent to show him to her and then let him go. When Evie was eating her hamburger for dinner, I dropped a little chunk in there to see that he would do.. and he ate his own body weight in hamburger!!!!! Thats when I knew an animal this awesome cannot be released back into the wild. I will keep him and he will live the good life with me, eating hamburger and cookies for as long as he shall live. Long live Chirpy II!
* For those who did not know Chirpy I, I am sorry for you, he was a Triop that brought happiness to everyone he met. RIP Chirpy I

I wish I could love this. I would like to love anything named Chirpy, but big crickets gross me out. They are like cockroaches to me. I wish you and Chirpy II the best, though. I'm disturbed that he eats hamburger.
