    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....

Anyone know of a Good Cricket supplier?

I used Carls crazy cricket farm. Was always please with the timely delivery and prices. But switch recently to roaches ...
 
I personally use Coldbloods. Courtland is awesome and always ships the next day if not the same day. His prices are excellent and he only charges exact shipping. I want to say its $8.50 per thousand plus shipping. I tend to buy in bulk during breeding/hatching time at around 25K per week. He has never been anything but excellent. Very professional. Well, obviously I can't stop speaking great things about him. [email protected]
 
Armstrong's

I've used Armstrong's for almost 3 years. I haven't had a problem with them at all. The Monroe, LA location ships 2nd day for me but it has come the next day except one time. I buy crickets, mealworms and superworms from them. Great customer service as far as ordering and shipping. I haven't ever had a problem but I imagine they would take care of it judging on the service I've gotten when ordering.
 
Crix-n-wiggles

I have used Crix-n-Wiggles for a long time now, and get the greatest service. Mike and Ruthann are wonderful people, ship out on time, and their prices are great. He also does superworms in all sizes, and has recently started selling roaches as well. Plus he always over-counts. Plus he is always around to help out with any questions on the animals.

Their used to be a feeder breeder in the middle of the state, but I can't remember what it's called or what the web site is. I used to get all of my bug feeders there. I thought it was sunshine mealworms, but I looked that up and that's the wrong state.
 
You really can't go wrong with Armstrong Crickets.
Jeff, the owner, is a great guy to deal with and you just can't beat the quality/price ratio. They sponsor a lot of Reptile Expos and have done a ton for the herp community. As far as I'm concerned there aren't any other cricket suppliers out there.
Take Care,
Gino
