If the chirping bothers you too much remove the adult males and feed them to something and have no more chirp |

The males do not have this. |

I used to have them in big plastic boxes, and in summer, I put the boxes outside of a night. The could chirp till their litte hearts were content out there and I just brought them in of a morning. Maybe you could try that? I believe you've been having really warm weather up there of late. |

S.A. | | | | Hey, Jimmy, buy some of those soft rubber earplugs, you twist em around then stick em in your ears when you go to bed. Works a treat, believe me! When we started breeding crix, we had them in tubs inside. I couldn't sleep either, so hence the earplugs. We now have ours outside in old freezers/fridges. Easy peasy. Cheers Cheryl
