I'm a cricket farmer and have been looking for something to water my 3-week old and smaller crickets, because they can drown so easily even with an over-wet sponge. Having to carefully rehydrate sponges atleast once a day or giving them expensive potato slices is both a hassle and time consuming, and so I thought I found the answer to my prayers with the "Water Pillow". "I was wrong", these things swell up so much that the edges lift high enough off the ground that pinheads all the way up to 1/4" crickets can't climb up and reach the water. The smooth platic bottom also makes it impossible for them to get any traction to climb.
I think they would work great for larger crickets but when you have thousands of crickets in each container like I do, these "Cricket Pillows" wouldn't last a day. For crickets 3 weeks old and bigger, I use reptile waterers with a sponge in the bowl that works perfectly and will last nearly a week before having to refill.
I do like the "Cricket Pillow" concept but the design is poor. If they could make them with a flat rigid bottom so all 4 edges stay on the ground, than they could be a winner.
