Any ideas when the next sale will be?

What kind of soil do you use? Where do you get it? Do you mix it with the eco earth?

I was at Petco, and one of the workers there told me that they feed their Russians crickets. Does anyone else do this? Is it ok for them to eat crickets? Also, do I need to have a turtle bone for my Russian?

I have a 5 month old russian, and I was wondering how much mazuri to give him. I am also wanting to get some TNT, but I need to know if I still need to sprinkle this on the mazuri or just on the fresh greens. I would appreciate any advice you can give!!!
