Even though the cage size seemed adequate, when the poster stated that that he had to go so far as to remove crickets that leaves two options- they Ackies aren't eating(habitat) or are being way overfed(owner). Crickets crawling over resting lizards is stress unnecessary. This is reguardless as to whether or not the bugs will actually physically damage the lizard. As I'm sure you know by experience, mental stress can be worse for reptiles.

We are really talking about the same side of the coin here FR and I'm sure the poster is satisfied with his options. There simply isn't anything to "argue" about. My advice is just one person experience, take it or leave it.
