question about mail order crickets

kyle1414 Mar 14, 2004 07:52 PM

my dad hates going out 2-3 times a week to get crickets so i suggested mail order crickets. But my lizards only eat around 40 large crickets a week and the lowest number we can find is 500 crickets, which would take around 12 weeks for them to eat them all, crickets dont have a lifespan of 12 weeks though, i think. Would mail order be the right choice? What we do with all the extras? Space and food can be provided for the crickets.

i went to a tulsa reptile show this weekend and their was a booth called "pet snake snacks".they are located in dallas texas and their number is 1-866-4-A-SNAKE.they prefer you call in for your order.now to the cricket deal.they sell cups of one hundred crickets for five dolllars.and if you want a specific size just tell them.im thinking about doing this to as im getting tired of going to the pet shop all the time.

hi, i saw an ad for flukers crickets where you can get 50 at a time with a 6 shipment contract. you can have them shipped once a week, twice a month or once a month. for like 30 bucks. i'm thinking about signing on for my anole. the site is www.flukers.com (i think) if i'm wrong just try a search for flukers. good luck, i'm tired of running out all the time too.
