So I decided maybe it would be better to join the beardie community in ordering the lovely little insects in bulk so I placed an order for 1000 1/2 inch crickets to be shipped to my home. Dovakhiin is more than capable of eating them before they become too large and our other pets enjoy a good protein snack. Well I may have never gotten anything live in the mail but don't they normally come in a box labeled LIVE in bold letters?
The slip the delivery driver put in our mailbox stated the box was "leaking" and had been "damaged or opened". Upon calling the post office who was supposed to handle the delivery they found it there where the driver had refused to put it in his truck as crickets were escaping. I told the man I could be there in a minute to pick up the remainder but I was told I have to wait till Monday. Now the post office has a damaged/opened box of 1000 small crickets escaping into their office. They will have been sitting there for 3 days by the time they will let me in to get them.
It'll take months for them to stop that chirping!
