Docile in the fridge in tupperware containers. I still have some from last year waiting to get dunked opening day. I find changing the water out once a week minimum is the key. Let it go longer than a week and the body count really starts to go up as I found out this winter. Got a little slack on it and I probably have less than half the leeches left as I did years prior. I feed every couple months or so. I understand they can go longer but it's not hard to do just drop some meat in.
