and hang the handle over a branch secured with a pipe cleaner.
One or two get out once in a while but usually it is because my chams try to eat several at a time and drop some.
Even a two or three inch deep bowl keeps them in pretty good.
Crickets are not smart enough to figure out if you jump straight up you can get out. 3/4 inch crickets and smaller tend to stay in the bowl where as more adult crickets tend to get out.
