Fluker Farms - Live Crickets

Ordering Live Feeder Crickets in the winter.  Now that winter weather has begun, we recommend checking our shipping information page before ordering Live crickets or any other Live Insects. Cold temperatures can greatly impact the odds of receiving your crickets live and healthy. See our live delivery guarantee before placing your order.

Selective Breeding - Crickets (Acheta domestica) from multiple farms throughout the country were mixed and bred for over 60 generations into a special strain called the “American Mix”. This is why our Acheta domestica have less mortality upon delivery and survive longer after they arrive, up to 8 weeks with proper care and nutrition.  We recommend a temperature range of 70-75F during the day and at night to keep their metabolism and immune system functioning properly. These insects are a rich source of protein and when gut loaded properly offer many other nutritional benefits to reptiles. Buy your reptile the best feeder insects for sale online today.

Crickets are available in sizes ranging from 1 week old (3/16 of an inch) to 6 weeks old (1 inch) and in box counts starting at 100. We also offer a 250ct 4 week old crickets and 250ct medium mealworms mixed box. This is a great way to help diversify your reptiles live insect diet. When ordering the mix, both will be packaged loose together in the same box. Looking for just mealworms?

Live Delivery Guarantee Winter

Fluker Farms guarantees live delivery when temperatures are as low as 16 degrees at the destination and/or regional sort facilities during estimated transit times. While most insect growers simply refuse to ship at temperatures below this threshold, Fluker Farms recognizes how much you rely on live insect for your pet’s nourishment and feel you should have a choice in the matter. Therefore, we provide the following options when the weather drops to 0-15 degrees (we will not ship to any areas below 0 degrees).

1) Ship Without Guarantee (SWG)-You can choose to have your insects shipped when the night time temperatures are between 0-15 degrees by selecting the SWG option, however, we cannot guarantee live delivery and NO REFUND will be given for insects that do not arrive alive.
 
2) Hold For Weather (HFW)-If you choose the HFW option, your order may be held up to 7 days while we wait on improved shipping conditions. If after 7 days the weather doesn’t improve enough for your order to be shipped, it will be cancelled and any charges refunded.
 
For your convenience we offer a variety of shipping methods from Fedex and the United States Postal Service. Please choose the method that is best suited for the conditions in your area. Keep in mind that although Fluker Farms will replace any insects that do not arrive alive (subject to the extreme weather policy outlined above), Fluker Farms DOES NOT guarantee any shipping charges. All shipping charges are final and non refundable. Please inspect your packages upon delivery and contact us immediately with any problems. All live insect claims must be made within 2 business days of delivery. To request a claim, please fill out our credit request form. All claims will be processed within 2 business days.

Which shipping method should I choose?

We offer a wide variety of options for shipping your live insects. Using the chart above as reference, our customers can choose which shipping service will work best for them. It is important to take into account that transit times vary greatly between the different options. USPS First Class Mail can take up to 7 business days and Fedex Overnight is a one business day in transit service. What works well for some customers will not always work well for others. If it is during the hot summer months or cold winter months we recommend not using USPS First Class Mail because it is the slowest option and increases the risk of receiving your insects DOA. Make sure to check the weather, carefully taking into account transit time and places that your package will travel through. Also important to consider is the price between the shipping methods: USPS First Class Mail is the cheapest, Fedex Priority Overnight is the most expensive with many options in between. We try to provide as much information as possible but it is ultimately up to the customer to make the best choice based on weather and the quality of delivery services available to your area.

    It Wasn’t Pretty

    Posted by Elizabeth Schroeder on Oct 17th 2018

    I ordered 100 3/4” crickets and they arrived in a timely manner. I opened the canister and dumped them into my cricket keeper to find that approx. half were dead. Now that the crickets are in my cricket keeper I can’t just dig around trying to separate live from dead, it was chaos! No big deal I thought, my gecko is gonna eat these fast anyway. Welp, she did eat them fast but still not fast enough. The cricket corpses created a post apocalyptic environment and bred worms and flying bugs. It was a nightmare and a nightmare I won’t be repeating.

    500 large crickets

    Posted by Greg Campos on Sep 20th 2018

    I was disappointed about 3 weeks ago when I ordered 500 large and it got here fast from Louisiana to Texas that's why I was disappointed that more than half were dead, believe me they were already prepackaged and were knowingly shipped off dead to me. I took immediate pictures and I counted each dead and each survivor, I had a pile of 257 dead. That's why I I didn't reorder and been buying again at petco but they run out so Im giving fluke another try since I actually did like the size of the ones that made it alive. There are many crickets wholesalers so if Fluker sends me dead ones again, flukers will be dead to me.

    Size is not correct

    Posted by Song on Aug 24th 2018

    Hi! It is my second order. I was very satisfied my ‘first’ order which 1/2 size with 500 crickets because it was the right size and healthy crickets. But this time I ordered 1000 crickets with 1/2 size which same size as the first one but the size is way smaller than the first order. They are way smaller than 1/2 inches.
    I am not satisfied about that. Hope to send me the right size crickets for the next time.

    Great, healthy, quick delivery

    Posted by Maria on Aug 22nd 2018

    I ordered my first batch of crickets, and they arrived on time and in excellent health. Highly recommend. Cheaper and healthier than those I've bought at pet stores.

    All came alive & super fast shipping

    Posted by Zoie on Jul 20th 2018

    I live in NC. These shipped all the way from LA. So for them to come alive I suggest you get the $7 shipping (usps priority mail) I ordered them on Wednesday and got them Friday, that is fast. Everything was well packaged and they came alive, if there was a dead one I couldn’t find one. Best cricket purchase I’ve experienced.

    Not one cricket in my 100 cricket can - Completely Empty

    Posted by Ashley Zink on Jul 6th 2018

    I have been ordering 100 1 week crickets every week to avoid the terrible service at the local pet stores. This shipment, I didn't hear anything inside of the can, I opened it and there was NOT ONE cricket. There was egg carton, one little beetle and a dead worm, no cricket, not even a dead one. I am extremely disappointed and will not be ordering again. Absolutely ridiculous.

    They made me perfect! I was afraid to order during summer but I am using them for my classroom and a summer class. The hissing cockroaches arrived quickly and alive! Great company!
