    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

quality cricket and mealworm sellers?

hey guys,
input on who you use would be great. I have bought from about 4 different business's for one reason or another i have not liked what i have gotten. who do you use? ........... in the past i have recieved crickets with spiders in the box....... DOA's, crickets that lived for a week at best mutating giant mealworms (right out of the box), broken box's (crickets running everywhere), crushed boxes. anyhow i am looking for the total package. customer service, quality bugs, and great shipping as well (good prices dont hurt either LOL)
take care all and thank you in advance
 
Hi,
 I've used Grooms Cricket Farms for almost two years now.  We used well over 250,000 crickets last year and after using alot of the 'others', Grooms seems to be the best.  Chris Grooms, the owner, is number one with customer service.  I have'nt found anyone better yet as far as customer service goes.  His crickets are top notch, hardly ever any DOA's, and can't recall aver seeing spiders.  He ships fed-ex mostly and with hardly any problems.  If you're looking for top notch, give them a try!
 Thanks,
 Bob
 
 PS.  If you're interested in trying him out, e-mail me for a link to his site at   [email protected]   Good Luck!~
