About This Item

Details

  • A staple of many reptiles’ diets, crickets offer an excellent source of protein, fiber, and fat.
  • Transit can cause crickets stress, and it’s normal to see some loss—that’s why Top Hat Crickets includes 10% extra crickets with every purchase quantity.
  • Banded crickets add enrichment plus healthy fats and protein to your pet’s meals.
  • Crickets are great for bearded dragons, geckos, aquatic turtles, frogs, and more; just be sure to order the correct size—feeder insects should never be wider than the width between your pet’s eyes.
  • With proper nutrition and care, small and medium crickets can live 2–3 weeks, while large crickets can live 7–10 days.

Good for a few months but all dead in winter

We started ordering around September and it was fine a little pricey but we ordered one shipment on December 13, all dead. So we call chewy and they were very kind

All Dead On Arrival

Bought 2000 large and came in all dead! No breathing holes, no heat packs or cold packs either for shipment.

Great Buy For Our Small Zoo!

All of our crickets arrived on time and alive. They were in a good box and it was easy for me to put them in the keeping tub that I use until all our guys eat them

On top of feeding live ones to our leopard geckos and spiders, we freeze some to give to our hermit crabs and our hedgehog and they all eat them right up!

Have ordered from this company in the past and have recently started ordering again. Last 2 orders came in great. Always comes with travel food for the crickets

Have ordered from this company in the past and have recently started ordering again. Last 2 orders came in great. Always comes with travel food for the crickets to make sure they arrive alive. Fast delivery as well, a huge plus.

1st time bought

So my first time buying and they all arrived alive and I am pleased. I will be ordering again now I can say I didnt know the delivery rules or whatever before ordering

So my first time buying and they all arrived alive and I am pleased. I will be ordering again now I can say I didnt know the delivery rules or whatever before ordering so if anyone reads this before ordering remember if u r 85plus degree weather or cold weather make sure u order mon threw wed before 4 pm bc on wed after 4pm it is no longer one day shipping but 2 so consider ur weather and order accordingly I ordered wed night at like 8 pm so they got here sat by 1230. It's like 86ish degrees here so the box was super warm but I brought them strait in and checked super glad to say all alive none dead the potatoes threw me off tho lol but ive only ever gotten feeders from a pets tore. Thank u I will be ordering another once they eat all these
