Ghann's, dont buy from them!

[ThDude]

i have ordered from Ghann's twice now and the first time i had a sorta high amount of DOA, this other batch i just got had almost every single one dead! i have asked many other owners and they also have had problems with a lot of DOA crickets as well as getting the wrong kind of crickets.

the crickets from Ghann's also died off in 10 days! way to soon! many people are sending them complaints and large emails are going out to them full of emails and names of unhappy customers.

i switched to http://rainbowmealworms.net/ they offer better prices and better crickets, also had only a few DOA in the box.

[Emmily]

many places sell the smaller ones and you should be able to feed them all off before they outgrow your lizard.

Yup, sounded like a strange statement to me also. Just feed smaller roaches .

Oh I didn't know they came in smaller sizes haha now I feel silly I shall look! She's in the middle of shedding so she's not eating much right now.

the roaches can be costly if you keep on ordering them, i would say your best bet would be to start breeding roaches. many eople on here do, Germ has been doing it for a while too so he knows a lot about it~

mulberry farms is the devil! Well they are bad anyway. Their customer service is very bad and they will not talk to you on the phone.

They accused several people of lying and even fraud when the requested black crickets and received brown mixed in with the black.

Lot mor ei have read about them but they are terrible people and don't care about their products, only the money

 

[Emmily]

Oh jeez hahaha when you find a good place to get black crickets from let me know so I can try them

Rainbowmealworms.net just ask for the black ones in the order. It has a box where u can write out directions for them and just ask for the black crickets.

 

[Emmily]

ok cool after hearing you talk about them I have been wanting to try them Thank you sir

Whats the with the black ones and tabor brown ones?

Whats the with the black ones and tabor brown ones?

Ok there are many kinds of crickets, and four or five kinds are used for reptiles though there are really just two main ones.

What you see in most pet stores are the brown house cricket, which are weak and die very easy.

The other is the black cricket known as a field cricket or Gryllus assimilis. They are stronger and eat a ton more then the brown crickets they don't die off as fast, cherp little as adults and a few other things. The black crickets are good ones and I am using them from now on.

There is a "gray" cricket as its being called which is a cross of the black and brown but it has not been confirmed as a separate type or cricket yet, rainbow mealworms.net has them I think too.

yah i 2, use black crix. i can thankfully get em from a very clean bait shop & they're very cheap! i get em like 2 er 3 bucks 4 100. they live much longer & get pretty big! but the 1's i get do seem to chirp A LOT more than the brown crix. they're a much hardier kind of cricket & i definately prefer them over the brown crix ne day!!!

 

[Emmily]

I will definitely be getting some once I run out of my brown crickets which wont be for another month maybe lol
