I know this topic's come up before, but I used to just order my feeder insects from BugCo. Well, that was mainly cause I lived in ND and BugCo is in Minnesota. Now that I live in MD, I want to know if there's a better place to order from. I recently placed an order through Flukers. I only ordered 500 crickets, but if its not enough I'll go with 1,000. I also ordered 500 zophobas and some fruit flies. The total, plus next day shipping was just over $39. Is there anyplace else that could get me a better deal?

I order mine off www.FosterSmith.com I order 500 at a time but you can order 1000 at a time to if you want. They ship them at standard shipping rates which is only 7 or 8 bucks. Hope that helps,good luck .

Cool, thanks guys. I'll check some of these out. With the mealie price at Grubco, I might go with them. It gets pretty hot here in the summer, so I'm not sure if I should risk ground shipping vs the next day. Any opinions?

mealies may make it with ground shipping, but I have only had good luck with overnight or 2 day when it comes to crix...

How much is everybody paying for shipping on crickets?. The places that were suggested are cheaper for the cricks then were I get them but it does say how much shipping is?. If the shippings cheap like were I order them then its time to switch.
