Reptiles give us so much, which is why they deserve the very best care. We pour our expertise and passion into creating great quality products that you can really trust. We're better with animals, they’re at the heart of everything we do.

Feed as part of a varied diet to any suitably sized reptile or amphibian. Use feeding tongs or place into an appropriately sized feeding dish. Check and remove any uneaten live food a few hours after feeding. Consult a reptile or amphibian veterinarian if you have any concerns about your pet's nutrition or feeding routine.

Product Care

As with all live food, it is essential they are kept healthy. How to look after live food: Packed in bran, ensure the crickets are kept at a regular temperature of approximately 70-75F (21-24C) and away from bright light. We recommend emptying the tub contents into a smooth-sided container with a vented lid and add a slice of apple or potato to provide moisture. Proper supplementation should be given prior to feeding to your reptile.

  • Crickets not as good as usual

    I have been buying standard crickets from here for a while and don't normally have any problems but recently I haven't always been able to get hold of them and when I have the quality doesn't seem as good, they don't last as long and my beardies turn their noses up at them.

  • Buy soon after delivery day and then all is well

    Soon after delivery day and they are all alive and well and good value, make sure you feed them fresh veg to make them laat the next 3 weeks to feed the lizard.. Our local store has delivery once a week, and if you make your purchase more than 4 or 5 days past that, you'll buy a box of crickets half of which are dead. So all fine as long as you time it right.

    Was ok, lizards enjoyed eating them but I bought small ones and they were definitely not small, also some of them were dead.
