Hi

My husband and I adopted a now 3 year old who is very active, so when he became interested at 2 in birds we got two birds, now our collection includes a 3ft black racer, 2 skinks, a large rat (really his fav.) 2 mice (couldn't feed to the snake), a water dragon, a frog. So with all that I needed crickets. I am now trying to get info on raising crickets to feed all these funny, interesting reptiles.

Re: Hi

Welcome to Herp Center. Raising crickets is quite labour intensive. Buying them bulk online helps out a bit.

Re: Hi

Hello and welcome to Herp Center. I agree buying crickets in bulk is easier than raising your own. I tried and failed. maybe I done it wrong, but I decided that buying was easier.
