No heat? @_@
They are cold blooded, without heat (needs undertank heating esp) they will croak from not being able to control their body temperature.... undertank heating help with digestion as well.
Make sure you have a hide on hot and cold side and a humid hide...
Make sure calcium in calcium dish doesn't have D3 (or so I hear)
That is the problem with crikets... just try to mat down the paper towel as much as possible or use mealworms...
As far as impaction goes, did you use the vegetable oil or whatever people suggest yet? If that doesn't clear it up, take it to a vet (if you haven't already) and see if he/she can suggest anything... If not cleared, it may lead to death.
I wouldn't put him back with sand, it isn't even natural for them, they live in rocky areas, just try to find a safer substrate
