Josh's Frogs 1" GUTLOADED Banded Crickets (60 Count)

Perfect order. Thanks so much for replacing the crickets that arrived stuck in a cold coma and never woke. The new crickets are plump and ready for feedings.

They were shipped faster than the date originally expected and the packaging was done really well. All were alive and they are staying alive unlike local pet stores crickets.

These arrived four days earlier than delivery said they’d arrive and they were mostly dead :( My mantis-sitter had to go buy crickets , which was what we were trying to avoid.

The crickets from the local pets shops and big box chains always die in a day or two and they are almost always out of crickets anyway. We have 6 adult praying mantis and they eat a lot of crickets. So, we had to find a reliable source. This is our second order of crickets from Josh's Frogs. We call them super crickets because they live forever and they are active and feisty. Thankfully, we have cats to get the crickets that escape! They arrive early and they are the most robust crickets we have every purchased. Each mantis gets 1 cricket every day or other day in their cage, but we also feed them meal worms by hand while they are out most of the day. Out of 60 only one or two crickets might die in their holding cage before we feed them to our praying mantis family. Sometimes none of the crickets die. Without Josh's frogs super crickets our praying mantis family would be going hungry! A nice side benefit, is that they chirpy loudly and that cricket sound quite soothing.

The crickets are to big for my gecko

Hardy. The leopard gecko likes them. Worth it.

Service was great. All crickets were alive and healthy on arrival. I did like that the crickets were in a container versus loose in a box. I have a Mexican Red Knee tranchula that loved them. Betsy(the spiders name) will carefully grab them out of my hand. I have never gotten crickets from even a pet store that were as active and live as long as these crickets had. They lived almost 2 months which is very awesome for crickets. I just also ordered some giant meal worms that arrived today and they are also the most healthy mealworms I have bought. Betsy will have to live on meal worms for the winter since we live in the north and risky to ship crickets. I made last order of crickets until spring for it is getting below 25 degrees soon. Thank you so much for great speedy service and providing a "healthy meal(s)" for Betsy.

I have bought from Josh's Frogs numerous times for my cricket needs and had absolutely no issue. However, when they say be aware of the temp's before you order, they mean it. This last order I received, I could smell through the box. I knew it would not be good. All of the crickets were dead and had turned to mush in the bottom of the container. So, buyer beware of the temps before you order. Wait until the temps are cooler and then order away.
