First meal

This photo was taken as soon as I got home from school. For the past week Cricketta had lived inside the classroom's plastic box and she hadn't been fed at all. This was later proven to be even more true by how happy and eager she was to be feed some of my fresh, green, crisp lettuce. She gobbled up the lettuce I gave her really quick and looked satisfied. I gave her about her body weight of lettuce because I knew she must have been very thirsty as well. So I gave her some extra food just in case she wanted to nibble out some of the vegetable's water. I also took this photo as a comparison to our diet as humans and how much food we/crickets need to sustain ourselves for one meal.
