About this item

  • Staple Food - Crickets are an excellent food source for your pets. Their high nutrition profile makes them an nutritious treat for reptiles, amphibians, birds, poultry, and more.
  • Convenient - Live crickets are hard to keep, loud, and contain odor. Our freeze drying process ensures the same nutritional value as a live cricket, but provides easier handling, convenience and a longer shelf life.
  • Nutritious - Our crickets are fed a diet of leafy greens, vegetable matter, and fruits. Our cricket diet ensures your pets are getting the nutrients they need.
  • Delicious Treat - Pets love our dried crickets, but some are picky eaters. Popular strategies include working them slowly into your pets diet, adding movement, and rehydrating in water to make more appealing.
  • Better Value - 1/2 pound of natural dried crickets in a stand up, resealable bag. At TradeKing, we pride ourselves and giving you the best value for your dollar.

Product Description

TradeKing Crickets

At TradeKing, all of our crickets are veterinarian certified to meet the highest quality and purity standards.

Dried crickets are a perfect source of protein for a variety of animals and reptiles, such as salamanders, small snakes, frogs, toads, rats, bats, shrews, mice and insect-eating birds.

When it comes to pets who love crickets, reptiles are probably at the top of the list. Bearded dragons, lizards and iguanas are all insectivores, which means they'll love our dried crickets all year round!

Gut-loaded crickets are rich in calcium, amino acids, fats, and protein. Dried crickets have the nutritional value of live crickets and are more convenient to feed. Our freeze-drying process ensures the preservation of all essential nutrients as well as increasing their shelf life.

With worms going up I found myself here.
5 Stars
With worms going up I found myself here.
Two lb bag at my wal mart Is 26. I saw this a few dollars less and the 5 lb super cheap. Figured I’d test the 2 lb first.These are twice the size of the ones I usually get. Big worms. Arrived packaged so well in a large box with padding. I was worried they would break in the mail but no. Hardly any broken. Matter of fact the wal mart bag has more broken ones.I am very happy with this purchase as are my outside birds. Many bluebirds and robins. They ate these up.Will be back for 5 lb bag.
Thank you for your feedback
