Crickets — nutritious, active, and widely loved feeder insects for reptiles, amphibians, birds, and insectivorous pets. Our crickets are raised for vitality and consistency, offered in multiple sizes so you can pick the right match for your animal’s age and species. Cleanly packaged and shipped promptly, they’re a reliable staple for natural feeding and enrichment.

Available sizes and recommended uses

  • Pinhead (XXS): Best for hatchlings and very small insectivores such as young geckos, anoles, small frogs, and tiny mantids. Easy to swallow and gentle on developing jaws.

  • 1 week (Extra Small): Ideal for juvenile lizards, frogs, and small to medium-sized invertebrates. A good step up from pinheads for growing animals.

  • 2 week (Small): Suited for most adult small to medium reptiles (e.g., leopard geckos, crested geckos), many amphibians, and small birds. Balanced size for nutrition and stimulation.

  • 3 week cricket (Small/Medium): Recommended for juvenile and small species: hatchling geckos, anoles, small skinks, small frogs, and young mantids.

  • 4 week (Medium): For larger lizards, adult frogs, etc. Provides substantial meal size and activity.

Key features

  • High nutritional value: Good protein-to-fat ratio and natural movement encourage feeding responses. Gut-loading recommended to maximize vitamins and minerals.

  • Healthy, active crickets: Raised under controlled conditions to promote vigor and minimize stress, resulting in stronger feeding responses.

  • Size-sorted: Carefully graded for consistent sizing so you can feed the correct portion for your animal’s needs.

  • Packaging for freshness: Ventilated containers that keep crickets lively during transport.

  • Feeding support: Instructions included for storage, feeding frequency, and gut-loading tips to improve nutritional outcomes.

Care & feeding tips

  • Gut-load 24–48 hours before feeding with a balanced diet (vegetables, commercial gut-load powders) to boost nutrient content.

  • Dust with calcium or vitamin supplements according to your animal’s needs; follow veterinarian or husbandry guidelines.

  • Feed appropriate-sized crickets to avoid choking or impaction; remove uneaten crickets to prevent stress or injury to tank-mates.

  • Store extras in a cool, dry place and provide water gels or dampened sponge for hydration if holding for extended periods.
