  • Healthy Live Crickets sent right to your door!
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 72)
Josh's Frogs never disappoints with their crickets! The first time I ordered I was worried about how it'd work having them sent through the mail, but, I gave it a shot and got my first order a few months back. I'm so glad I did! I've ordered from them a few times now, and each time every single cricket has arrived alive and healthy. They are usually a little thirsty from being in that box during shipping. So all ya gotta do once ya get 'em is give them something with liquid for 'em to have a drink, and they'll be happy and healthy for as long as you keep them. WAY better value than buying from my local pet shop. When I buy from there the crickets usually die within a few days. Josh's Frogs crickets last as long as they're supposed to, and I've yet to have even a single cricket dead on arrival. Plus, the sizes are accurate. I've gotten different sizes all the way from pinheads to adult crickets and each time I got exactly what I ordered. I doubt I'll be buying crickets from anywhere else anytime soon just because these are far better quality and also better quantity than I can get elsewhere due to the simple fact that they're healthy and don't all die within 24 hours (as long as you actually take care of them, feed them, give them liquid like insect water jelly or even some fruit slices or something. They're bugs, they aren't picky, they'll love pretty much anything you offer them and they're fairly easy to keep alive once you have the right source and know how to keep them) Never gonna buy the sad dying lethargic crickets from the local store again. Waste of time and money. These are always healthy, always fat and happy, full of nutrients, ready to be fed to whatever needs them. (Or even just kept as a pet themselves, if that's what you're looking for. They make lovely little noises once they become adults.) ... show more

  • 500 crickets delivered to my door safely and with no visible casualties.
Size: 500 Count (Pack of 1)
I did not count the crickets but there didn't seem to be any dead bodies, just lots and lots of lively, healthy crickets for my bearded dragon. Careful opening the box as the crickets are ready to escape. I expected there to be some loss in shipping but these were exceptionally healthy. The temperatures here have been unseasonably warm 90+ The crickets were delivered to the front office so they did not spend time outside once they arrived. Based on this experience, I would happily place future orders of feeders from Josh's Frogs. ... show more

  • Excellent product!
Size: 1.05 Pound (Pack of 1)
ALL crickets were alive upon arrival and 3 days later none have died! They look active and healthy and so much better than the crickets from Petsmart. The only thing I didn’t like was that it was very difficult to transfer the crickets into our small plastic containers and I had to put everything into the bathtub and it took a good 15 minutes. When you open the box, the crickets will immediately jump out so be careful! Great product overall though and I will definitely buy from here again. ... show more

  • Arrived alive in the middle of Texas summer. Great product well packed.
Size: 500 Count (Pack of 1)
I didn’t know what to expect, because I have never ordered crickets in mass bulk before. We decided to get the half-inch crickets so they could grow for a while before we use them. They rubbed in a sturdy cardboard box complete with a stainless steel mesh screen. It was just a really well put together box. I had to put it to the side not with the regular Amazon boxes. I pulled out my survival, knife, and carefully opened the box of crickets, sealed really well, though no challenge for the official knife of survival. I carefully and methodically, opened the box as to not release the crickets. First glance into the box revealed some newspaper and egg crates. I am certain there were hitch hikers in that box too but there were also crickets lots and lots of crickets. They were very tiny, but they seem like they were about half inch longer if you count the whiskers. I don’t think they have the power to jump as high as they did on TV. They seem to struggle with a dish of earth that has a half inch tall lip, so I built them a vermiculite ramp. They are thriving in their new home and getting big and multiplying. I spotted a couple cleaner beetles in there as well. They are beneficial. ... show more

  • 50/50 chance they’ll be good

I’ve ordered these before and they were great like a good size and all were alive but this time I ordered it they came very tiny and half were dead so I thinks it’s a hit or miss
