Online Crickets and Eating

[doulos668]

Ok, my local Pet Store is killing me with these .13/per crickets Who do you use and how much are they? My beardies are eating 3/4 inch crickets atm. If we are not allowed to discuss sites, please PM me. I would be truly thankful.

Also how many crickets of the size above do you think 2 beardies aged 3 to 3.5 months old should eat?

Yeah, that seems to be nothing like what I asked. But thanks for posting an absolutely useless site. I will be sure to never visit it.

lol that was a bot that posted, it happens occasionally - just ignore it, the mod's take them out pretty quickly.

I've heard some good things about flukers, check mulberryfarms.com out also, they're another popular one

I've ordered from Mulberry farms in the past and been satisfied, but they have suspended priority mail shipping for the holidays or something. Their order form wouldn't work and their postage paid crickets are the only cost effective way to get them. I put in an order from Great Lakes Hornworm for 500 crickets and 500 small supers. I will let you know when they arrive, but I've heard good things about them from others. I think my total with shipping was under $35. I spend $18 with tax on 100 crickets at my local pet store, and even if they don't die, they only last at most 4 days.

I just ordered 500 from flukersfarms.com, I hope I have enough room for them....


What do you guys use to hold your crickets?

plastic storage totes just any cheap one from walmart most are under $10 just cut a hole in the top and glue on some screen.

i've had over 2000 in a tote no problems at all.

Awesome, thanks!

Just got our first 500 crickets from Flukers. They were a bit smaller than I would hope, but then again they will grow over the next few weeks before they are all gone. They arrived alive and I am happy. My two ladies are even happier, especially our Nei Tokk!
