Wow, none of those look anything like what I collect from around here! Where do you live? I don't know much about the dispersion of grasshooper species but those aren't even reminiscent in color or shape of the ones around here! I bet they are just as juicy and delicious as mine are though!

*clarification, juicy and delicious to the lizards, not me! LOL LOL

I live just west of Lawton, Oklahoma. (Just south of the origin of all Collared-kind.)

your grasshoppers look different, I hunt down by a pond and around it, If you hunt in a horse pasture, chances are they are short horned grasshoppers, which I have never found to be easy to catch.

Lucky you, alls ive got here is those Giant black field crickets, which are apparently quite crunchy.

I think they enjoy the big size. Especially the Baja collareds, they LOVE those BIG Black guys ! Eve
