## Description

desertcart.com : Josh's Frogs 1/2" Banded Crickets (72 Count) : Pet Supplies

Review: All Alive! - These were great! They all arrived alive and healthy! It was below freezing outside but the heat pack was still warm! Will be ordering again 🦎
Review: Great Product! Highly Recommend. - Great seller for crickets, will buy more from here in the future if needed! They came quickly and all were alive and well, though the sizes ranged quite a bit (pinheads to large). Unfortunately my geckos stopped eating crickets about a week after buying them so I didn't get much use, but these crickets lived FOREVER after buying and all remained healthy until I gave them to someone else who could use them. (Of course you need to feed them something such as cricket quencher and give them egg cartons to chew.) Be aware that this species of cricket is very fast so if you have slow animals like mine you may have to tong feed or squish them a bit before feeding, as my leopard geckos could not seem to catch these on their own, even my most ravenous eater would give up after a while. I would highly suggest these. They smell much less than the ones from Petco, Petsmart, etc., are much more healthy, and you ultimately do not have to worry that these crickets will carry parasites as you do with the ones from the big chain stores mentioned above.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: We live in WY and it is currently below freezing; will these crickets survive transport?**
A: I live in northern New Mexico it wasn't below freezing yet when I got my package but I only had for dead and they throw extras in but they should be fine as long as you keep track of your order pick it up the same day of delivery

**Q: What kind of container do these come in?**
A: Clear plastic container with holes on top. There is also the egg crate inside.

**Q: Do you get a good male to female mix because i have a large reptile colony and i would like to breed them**
A: I can't answer that definitely, but from observation I say yes. We were getting more crickets than we needed for a while, and tiny pinheads started showing up in our well maintained cricket habitat, and we weren't even trying to breed them. Hope that helps.

**Q: how do you help them survive in the winter during their travels?**
A: Hi,At Josh's Frogs we send crickets with heat packs to help them cope with the cold temperatures. ErinCurator of Insects

### ⭐ The box was empty.
*by B***. on February 24, 2026*

I have never had a bad experience with Josh's Frogs. But this time was a big disappointment. The package arrived a day earlier than expected. I was glad, as we were expecting colder snowy weather. I noticed that the box was damaged and had been taped. When I opened it...no crickets...only a few dead ones. The container inside the box had split open when the box was damaged. The crickets must have escaped. I would love to be reimbursed or please resend the order.
