how banded crickets are differenthow banded crickets are different

Have you ever been frustrated with dead crickets?

We were! We were always getting dead crickets.

After years of shopping around, testing other species, and learning more about crickets, we found Banded Crickets Gryllodes sigillatus! These crickets ship well all year long; they weren’t dying when the temperatures would spike a little bit, or if the temperatures unexpectedly dropped. In most climates, they would consistently arrive alive and fresh.

They were also living much longer than other species we had experience with.

What benefits do banded crickets have for my pets?

All crickets are bred and raised to provide you the best quality feeder insect. These crickets also naturally contains more protein compared to other species of crickets, which is important for building and repairing tissue in your pets!

But what if they don’t all arrive alive?

Our goal is to get insects to customers that are alive on arrival every single time! We understand that sometimes because of extreme temperatures, handling mishaps, or shipping mistakes that just doesn’t happen. For the times when your live items don’t quite make it, we have a generous 3 Day Life Insurance Policy* on all live insects!

How are they packed in the winter when it is cold?

When the temperatures drop we switch over to cricket boxes that do not have vents. These boxes do a great job holding body heat from the crickets in the box, keeping them toasty during their winter travels. They also eliminate potentially fatal drafts!

The boxes are not airtight, and crickets can still breathe in the box. As oxygen levels decline, the crickets slow down their metabolism and movement. This state allows them to survive shipping. We’ve had them last over 2 weeks this way!

When choosing the size of your feeder insects, we recommend choosing insects equal to or less than the distance between your animals eyes. If you choose insects larger than that measurement, the animals can have difficulties consuming or digesting the feeders.

    Wildly impressed
    I was hesitant about ordering crickets – I’m the guy who goes to the local pet store to buy crickets for a serious upcharge because they die quickly anyway.I pulled the trigger and bought 250. Sadly I wasn’t home when it was delivered and the box sat it in the heat for a while. I was heart fallen and tried to get home as quickly as possible. But when I opened the box to see see, not a single cricket was dead. It was….. Amazing.I rehoused them into a critter keeper with food + such, and they were super energetic. I fed my crested geckos, who LOVED THEM, and saved the rest.Next day I came back in expecting the crickets to be half alive and half not, like the over priced ones I buy from the store, but no…. They were All doing well. It was… Shocking.The shipping packaging of the box was so great, there were airholes and lots of room for the crickets to be safe.They just got themselves a new customer! No more going to the store, it’s these guys only for us from now on!

    Great deal, healthy and lively.
    So far so good. The crickets came VERY alive and healthy. Tired of paying 17C per cricket at our local pet store. Highly recommended

    Even in snowy weather only 2 died during shipping which is fantastic
    Very satisfied with the delivery. a few more died after about an hour of transferring to the cricket tank. Still a great deal!!

    All dead.
    All crickets came dead. I was really hoping for them to come alive, at least I got a refund.
