My new pets

I am now the proud (?) owner of two yellow fighting crickets.  If I can figure out how to get the box open I might even think about feeding them but so far this Chinese "puzzle" box has me stumped - doesn't seem to affect their chirping however.  Cynthia elbowed me in the ribs this morning and said "What is that sound? Turn off your alarm!"  To which I sleepily replied - "Its just my crickets, honey."

What do they eat? What are you supposed to do with them? Isn't there some belief that they bring good luck?

I have enjoyed the cricket episodes.

What did you say to Mr Dong to smooth the way and become the proud owner of Huang and Ling? They may just sing when hungry?!! Good luck. Mom
