    Crickets

    Does anyone know of a better price to by small crickets? I get mine from "petsmart" and they run anywhere from 9 cents to 11 cents a piece. OR Does that sound pretty reasonable?

    usually your gonna have to order by 500-1000 to make it worth shipping.

    so you have enough animals to feed that many too? or do you have a place to keep them, food to feed them, water gel for them?

    Unless I am buying a box of 1000 (21.95), they are .99-1.25 a dozen.

    Re: Crickets

    Not sure if they exist where you are, but I buy all my feeders from Scales n Tails - reptile specialty store. 1000 crickets (or worms in my case) on a card for $41 including tax. With that, I just go in and get my weekly needs taken off the card. My feeder mice are on my card as well, nice and convenient

    Re: Crickets

    So far this site looks the most inexpensive. I'll have to order from them in the near future. And THANKS to all for your replies and help..

    Yeah but it's all about where you live and shipping costs.

    From ReptileFood it would cost me $26 for 1,000
    From Cricketsonline it would cost me $85 for 1,000
