Easy to see you're a cricket amateur here. Got a box of crickets? Dump them into a plastic garbage bag, preferably a clear recycling bag so you can see what is what, by partially opening the box the crickets came in, then thrusting the entire box, held by 1 hand, into the bag. Rap sharply on the box several times until all the crickets are in the bag. I would suggest emptying the crickets into a Kricket Keeper, which has 4 tubes resting in it. When you want to feed Holly, your beardie, you just lift one of the tubes up carefully, so you don't dislodge any of the crickets hiding there, and shake the distal end of the tube into Holly's tank. If you want to regulate the amount of crickets you give her more carefully, shake the tube into a plastic storage bag, count out the crickets, and dump the rest remaining in the tube back into the Kricket Keeper. Make sure you order some good cricket gut load food, so your crickets are optimally nutritious for the beardie, and supplement that with raw veggie leftovers such as carrot, both for vitamins and water source.

LIZARDS!!
My father used to put unknown objects on his dining room table where his wide variety of old-timer friends would explain what the objects were.
Live cricket traps for fly fishing bait were one of the hardest to identify objects.
