House Brown crickets (Acheta domesticus) are the perfect everyday feeder for reptiles and amphibians. Significantly quieter than black crickets and with a softer, more digestible body, they're ideal for geckos, frogs, chameleons and insectivorous species of all sizes.Packed with approximately 20% protein, these crickets suit everything from delicate juveniles to established adults. Their small frame makes them easy for even picky eaters to consume. Available in micro to adult sizes, you can select the perfect fit for your collection.Keep your crickets in a ventilated enclosure with egg-crate, maintained at 20–28°C with a gel water source. Gut-load them 24–48 hours before feeding with cricket food and fresh vegetables, then dust with calcium and vitamin supplement immediately before use. Remove any dead crickets promptly to maintain hygiene.Note: Brown crickets have a calcium-to-phosphorus ratio that requires supplementation — always dust and gut-load before feeding. Quantities are packed by scoop and approximate; whilst we aim for the stated minimum, slight variations may occur with larger individuals.Choose your pack size from our range to match your feeding schedule and collection needs.

Black crickets (Gryllus bimaculatus) are hardy, high-protein feeders ideal for medium to large insectivores. Larger and more robust than brown crickets, they're long-lived, travel well, and their fast, darting movement triggers enthusiastic feeding responses in ground-hunting predators.Packed with approximately 20% protein and moderate fat, they feature a tougher exoskeleton than brown crickets. Remember that the calcium-to-phosphorus ratio requires dusting and gut-loading to ensure balanced nutrition.Perfect for adult bearded dragons, larger geckos, adult chameleons, large frogs and toads, tarantulas, scorpions, and a wide range of other reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates.Quantities are approximate as crickets are scooped rather than counted. Every pack is made to minimum net weight, so larger crickets may mean slightly fewer individuals — we always aim for the quoted quantity as a minimum.Gut-load 24–48 hours before feeding with quality cricket food and fresh vegetables, then dust with calcium and vitamins. House in a ventilated keeper with egg-crate hiding at 20–28°C, provide a gel water source, and remove dead crickets daily. Remove any uneaten crickets from the enclosure—black crickets chirp loudly, can bite, and may stress small or shedding animals.Available in multiple pack sizes to suit your collection needs.
