FAQs

Are large crickets too big for my adult bearded dragon?
Large crickets (20mm) are perfect for bearded dragons over 12 months old. The rule is crickets should be no wider than the space between your dragon's eyes.
Can I use these for aquarium fish?
Yes! Large crickets are excellent for predatory fish like Oscars, large Cichlids, and Barramundi. They provide natural hunting stimulation and high protein nutrition.
How many large crickets equal one mouse for feeding?
Nutritionally, 8-10 large crickets roughly equal one adult mouse in protein content, but crickets are much easier to digest and store.
Will large crickets bite my pets?
Crickets are harmless to reptiles. Their mandibles are designed for plant matter and cannot harm your pets. They're actually less likely to bite than smaller, more frantic crickets.
Can I breed these crickets at home?
While possible, our 6-week-old crickets are approaching adult size but aren't quite ready for breeding. They're optimized for feeding rather than reproduction.
How do I prevent crickets from chirping at night?
Keep crickets cooler (18-20°C) to reduce activity. Male crickets chirp more when warm. Remove any egg cartons as males use them as resonating chambers.
