Review: Don’t do it - I’ve been buying crickets for a (used to be) baby bird I found and they’ve been about $17/100 at a major pet store. The little guy eats a lot so checked desertcart and was presently surprised at this deal for 1000 which is A LOT cheaper. It didn’t show up for 5 days… and by the time it did most of them were dead. They did not put any type of food or any water source. Couldn’t throw a couple of carrots in there. And then I contacted them and they ignored me. When I get 100 crickets (which by the way are bigger and juicier at the big pet store) it lasts me 4 or 5 days. This box of 1000 mostly dead crickets didn’t last a full 2 days. Bad customer service, bad product. Review: Very pleased - I was very happy the delivery of my crickets today! All were in great health and condition and am very pleased with the amount and size I received in my order. Thank you and I will be purchasing from you again! ## Features - High-Quality Assurance: Our crickets are bred and raised in a controlled environment, ensuring they are free from contaminants and provide a clean, reliable food source for your pets. - Nutrient-Rich Diet: Crickets are a natural and nutritious food source for various pets and reptiles, delivering essential proteins and vitamins that contribute to their overall well-being. - Freshness Guaranteed: We prioritize freshness to maximize the nutritional value of our crickets, providing your pets with the energy they need to stay active and vibrant. - Convenient Packaging: Our crickets are carefully packaged to guarantee their well-being during transit, arriving at your doorstep in optimal condition. - Versatile Feeding Options: Whether you have reptiles, amphibians, or exotic birds, our crickets cater to a wide range of pets, offering a versatile and natural feeding solution. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B072BWGHPC | | ASIN | B072BWGHPC | | Additional Features | Live, Contaminant-Free Crickets | | Age Range Description | Medium | | Animal Food Diet Type | Raw | | Best Sellers Rank | #41,123 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #296 in Reptile & Amphibian Food | | Brand Name | BASSETT'S CRICKET RANCH | | Breed Recommendation | All Breed Sizes, Medium Breeds | | Container Type | Bag | | Customer Reviews | 2.9 2.9 out of 5 stars (217) | | Date First Available | May 12, 2017 | | Dog Breed Size | Medium | | Flavor | Crickets | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Form | Crickets | | Manufacturer | Bassett's Cricket Ranch | | Manufacturer | Bassett's Cricket Ranch | | Number of Items | 1000 | | Occasion | Birthday | | Product Benefits | Nutritious, fresh, and versatile pet food | | Recommended Uses For Product | Feeding pets and reptiles | | Special Ingredients | Crickets | | Target Species | Reptile | | Unit Count | 1000 Count | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Medium - **Brand:** BASSETT'S CRICKET RANCH - **Flavor:** Crickets - **Item Form:** Crickets - **Special Ingredients:** Crickets ## Images ![1000 Medium (1/2") Banded Crickets - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71HrCfQ2KML.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ Don’t do it *by G***3 on July 12, 2025* I’ve been buying crickets for a (used to be) baby bird I found and they’ve been about $17/100 at a major pet store.
