crickets are easy to keep. Get something like a rubbermaid box, punch a few small air holes in the lid and put in a substrate like paper towels, aspen bedding, ect. Then put in a piece of a sponge and some diff fruits and veggies everyday. I have crickets that i do not feed anything that can live for over a week. Do not keep them in bag ect, as they can chew out and you will have bugs all over the house. Toaky geckos are attractive large gekcos, arboreal and are strictly decorative. They have a painful bite as far as lizards go. They get up to a foot long and need some kind of heating apparatus(heat lamp with red bulb is a good 24 hr heat source) They will eat anything alive, so keep them alone. They will eat any kinds of bugs, crickets being a good staple along with mealworms, nightcrawlers, hissing cockroaches, and even will occasionally eat pinky mice. Just an idea. The best starter lizards are leopard geckos, but they are a terrestrial species. If you want more info on tokays(i have never kept the species but gave you waht i do know about them) go to the gecko forum and ask advice there from some of the keepers. Good luck~Andy
