The water blocks can be made with plain gelatin or
agar. You would use the recipe that comes with the powder.=20

Hey Gang -

I am helping my MS advisor set up a cricket colony
for mass production.
=20

=A0
=20
=20
I seem to recall seeing pictures of someone's setup
- probably a kingsnake.com
=20
=20
vendor's webpage.=A0 It was a pretty big
operation that could be likened to a rodent
=20
=20
colony (e.g., racks of tubs).
=20
=20
=A0
=20
=20
He and some undergrads have the breeding down, they
just need to figure out the
=20
=20
organization so all the sizes aren't mixed, and then
ramping up to produce enough
=20
=20
to meet demand.
=20
=20
=A0
=20
=20
Also, anyone have a "home recipe" for
those water blocks?
