Josh's Frogs 1/2" Banded Crickets (1000 Count)

Came in early. All healthy and alive.

These little critters came in perfect condition. I live in Utah and it gets pretty cold here and I always worry about the temperature but they are boxed so well to keep them warm and dry.

Very satisfied. Definitly recommend ordering when temperature is good and at beginning of week so they do not get caught up in shipment (as they are live). I like that the food source was added for them to keep them satisfied. These crickets are alot smarter than the store bought too. Different breed :) They came directly in a small box which was a bit challenging but less cramped for them. Airways for them is well though out and nice and clean.

Baby's definitely not 1/2

No crickets died. Not one. It’s amazing how healthy these crickets come in. No bad smell from these crickets. I kept them with their original egg cartons and they never molded. Size of crickets was accurate and it was easy to open the container. I was using this for my 5 month old chameleon and this 1000 1/2 crickets lasted a full month. Very worth it.

ALL (1000 Count) DEAD on ARRIVAL!! I tried to contact " Josh's Frogs" but NO ONE answered. NO ONE called back! SCAM so FAR. I'll give them 2 business days to respond to my request for a REFUND. Otherwise... beware of this SCAM. Will keep up updated,

I purchased this to be housed in a terrarium that I set up to have wheat grass growing in stratified soil. On one end a brick set in with little cups for cricket feed and watering gel so that they can have a natural diet and an environment closer to what they'd get in nature. I was expecting them to be delivered in little plastic cups like most insects, but no. They had little egg cartons in a larger box. I suspected they might have been loose in the box when I noticed the plastic hole inserts pushed through the box, so I carefully removed one of the inserts first and could see that they were loose so I tried just shaking them in that way, but that didn't work. So, carefully opening the top, I saw the egg cartons that they were hiding in. This made it impossible to get them into the aquarium without putting the egg cartons themselves in, and more than a hundred escaped in the process. Worse, because I wasn't expecting this, the cartons had to go directly on the wheat grass which continued to grow under it, pushing the carton up and lifting the lid letting even more escape requiring me to tape it all down. So, here are the pros and cons broken down. Pro: All of the crickets arrived alive. Shipping them with the cartons likely ensures their safety as the box is knocked around. There also seemed to be foot residue on the inside of the box keeping them in good condition. Had they been cramped inside plastic cups I'd expect many to have been dead. The plastic inserts for the box was also a very nice touch. Cons: Because of the egg cartons you have to assume that they are going to escape. Even knowing that they are loose in there doesn't prepare you enough. Also, the box attracts ants big time. I left the box out overnight and the next day it was crawling in them. I really should have seen that coming. I mean, it's lined with insect food. Still, it's a good thing to be aware of. Would I buy again? Absolutely. Would I open the box inside my house again? Absolutely not. I'd open them outside, put in what I can get in and leave the rest to nature.

I ordered 1000 crickets and receive 998? What give man? IM TOTALLY KIDDING!! Ordered them and it was next day delivery, granted im not that far from the breeder. Anyways..I opened the box and it was heated with food for the Jiminy's. Looked for dead ones and didnt find one!! Thank you Josh!! Im going to hit you up someday with a random number as Flint is my home town!!
