Frazers Farm, you've kept a good thread going with your questions, which has brought up some interesting suggestions and challenges. Mine are in the bathroom which will be warmer in the winter than the rest of the house, I "de-frass" outside, it's plenty humid in Central PA, and usually I am not bothered by allergies. So, I am looking forward to having enough to feed the ladies over the winter when grasshoppers and crickets are not around. I bought 50 at a time at the local pet store with a total of 200. I might be a bit naive about timing for the winter, but I'm having fun in the meantime. I wish you well and keep those questions and concerns coming!
