desertcart.com : Josh's Frogs 1/2" Banded Crickets (72 Count) : Pet Supplies

Review: Great company 👍 - OK, so I ordered crickets from a different supplier last time 250 count .500” and most of them were dead on arrival. The ones that were alive, moved very slowly. didn’t jump at all and had a pale coloration to them. I only ordered 72 .500” crickets from these guys thinking I don’t wanna spend all that time picking out dead crickets again, but was pleasantly surprised. There wasn’t a single dead cricket, and these things were jumping around like crazy. I dropped them in my little habitat that I made from a 5 gallon bucket and as soon as they hit the bottom they went straight for the dry cat food. They were literally grabbing onto it and dragging pieces across the bucket! My son and I got a kick out of that, it was hilarious.. I noticed these guys also shipped them with a heating pad. I think this makes a big difference. I also think these guys feed them well too, as ther color was darker. I have been keeping my crickets in the garage and it gets down into the 40s here where I live not too cold but thinking I will keep them indoors now to keep them warmer. Today’s date May 25, updating my review. I have ordered from these guys four times now haven’t received a single dead, cricket, this time the crickets were delivered on the 23rd and I forgot about them in my vehicle and opened the box 3 days later on the 25th and not a single. They were pretty hungry though. You can see them attacking the cat food in the video clip😆🤣😂
Review: All Alive! - These were great! They all arrived alive and healthy! It was below freezing outside but the heat pack was still warm! Will be ordering again 🦎

## Questions & Answers

**Q: We live in WY and it is currently below freezing; will these crickets survive transport?**
A: I live in northern New Mexico it wasn't below freezing yet when I got my package but I only had for dead and they throw extras in but they should be fine as long as you keep track of your order pick it up the same day of delivery

**Q: What kind of container do these come in?**
A: Clear plastic container with holes on top. There is also the egg crate inside.

**Q: Do you get a good male to female mix because i have a large reptile colony and i would like to breed them**
A: I can't answer that definitely, but from observation I say yes. We were getting more crickets than we needed for a while, and tiny pinheads started showing up in our well maintained cricket habitat, and we weren't even trying to breed them. Hope that helps.

**Q: how do you help them survive in the winter during their travels?**
A: Hi,At Josh's Frogs we send crickets with heat packs to help them cope with the cold temperatures. ErinCurator of Insects
