Feeder insects in Canada?

[ootnaboot]

Hi everyone, I've been reading information from this forum for a few weeks now but am only just getting around to making my own account. I've found many useful topics in these forums and I plan to return often. My question for now though is, does anyone know of any reliable, convenient feeder insect breeders that will ship in Canada? I have found a few online but they all only seem to deliver to the states or the UK. In particular I am looking for phoenix or silk worms. It just so happens that in my area there are no pet stores with any feeders other than crickets and meal worms, and I would like to give Gordon Freeman some variety. If the company is convenient enough I may even begin making routine orders every few weeks.

I'm not sure how old my Gordon is at the moment, but he is a tad over 9 inches or so. I am taking him to the vet tomorrow for a check up just to see how things are going.

Thanks!

Dang, I checked it out and the prices all seem pretty good and what not, only problem is the shipping is $50 to Ontario

I was very very dissapointed with bug order. Most of my crix were dead upon arrival then the rest succumbed to the cricket virus within 5 days. I will never order from them again. I really really like www.supercricket.ca. Healthy live crickets! Ill look around for someone closer to you in the meantime.

Awesome! I'll probably order some tomorrow from one of them, I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks a lot, I really appreciate it.

Bugorder.com is a great place to get Superworms, but really, I think it's only good for us on the west coast.

-But-

My Little girl just woke up from her first brumation and all her worms are dead... Aaaaand Bugorder isn't shipping until the new year.

I now need a place that isn't going to charge me $50+ to ship a month worth of supers...

I've been ordering from Simply Dragons lately. The owner, Rachel is very nice and I've had great service from them so far. They're located near Ottawa though, so I'm not sure if that would help you in your case.
