Medium Cricket Value Pack

Medium Cricket Value Pack (approx 250 Crickets)

Cricket Value Packs are ideal for chicken enthusiasts with chicks or younger birds who need lots of crickets, with the convenience of a container to keep them safe and secure. The sturdy, reusable, plastic box has a flip open hatch and removable lid. The packs come with plenty of hiding spaces and ventilation for maximum shelf life of the crickets. Please ensure that the crickets are regularly fed and watered with Gutload and Aquaload which is sold separately.

Crickets are suitable for chickens, ducks, quails, pheasants, peacocks, guinea fowl and turkeys. Other omnivores and insectivores also enjoy crickets.

The Value Pack Containers are reusable for many purposes such as housing insect pets, mini bulks of insects or storing items around the home. 

Pisces Crickets are Australia's premium crickets and have been used by zoos, wildlife sanctuaries, vets, animal carers, and families for over 20 years.

Crickets are a nutritious and natural addition to the diets of many animals. They are easy to use and are a wholesome livefood which helps to provide the protein and roughage animals would naturally acquire in the wild.

Crickets are also lively and the thrill of the chase brings out the natural foraging skills of your chickens providing enrichment and joy. 

Cricket Care and Storage: Pisces Crickets should be provided with fresh Aquaload and Woodie & Cricket Food or Gutload every few days. These water and food sources should be constantly available to maximize the longevity of the crickets and provide maximum nutrition to your animals.

Gutload is eaten by the crickets and then consumed by your animals before the cricket digests it providing a valuable boost of protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and minerals in addition to the nutrition in the cricket itself. This makes the crickets "Gutloaded."

Crickets prefer to be between 20 to 25 degrees Celsius. Avoid poisonous fumes, pesticides, and cleaning supplies near crickets.

Please note that the numbers of crickets in the containers will vary slightly but should not be below the stated number.

Please take care when unpacking your Insects. Sometimes other insects decide to enjoy life in our insect grow-rooms. Whilst every care is taken to ensure that no hitchhikers are present in our LiveFood products, sometimes other species will be present. Feel free to contact us if you would like an identification.
