  • We see people spending HUNDREDS of dollars a month on crickets. As we order over 25 thousand crickets a month, we HAVE to save money without sacrificing quality. In this video, we share the company we purchase our crickets from, while I put away 6K of crickets.... and Nanette critiques me!
    We feed a LOT of crickets. How many do you feed? After 20 years of trying many many different cricket breeders, we feel like we've found the BEST cricket vendor for us. Watch this video as we show you the way we keep our crickets and share the cricket vendor we go to for our cricket needs.
    I put away all these crickets and later had Nanette critique me on how I did. You might be surprised to hear what she had to say.

    I think I've tried all but one of the breeders you mention. One of them is quite close to me, so I usually go with them. It comes out to be cheaper for me, because of its proximity. It is fun to try out a variety of insect suppliers from time to time.

      That is great! It is so surprising how expensive feeder insects are! I have not check prices in 4-5 years and had sticker shock!

    I get 4000-6000 a week. I used to use the bug co but started having issues with a ton of dead ones so I switched but I may have to give them a try again as it’s been a few years.

      I think all companies go through a bad spell. I had that with 3 other companies as well as a short time with TBC. But the past few years have been consistent with them.

    What is the food?Do you put carrot 🥕 or apple 🍎 or potatoes 🥔 or anything else for moisture?
    How often do you clean the bins?
    Do you use the dead crickets 🦗 for fertilizer in your garden?

    • @SupremeGecko
      @SupremeGecko  3 місяці тому

      Love it- lots of questions. We use mostly firm veggies like carrots and zucchini but will use apples occasionally. I usually do not need to clean as we go through the crickets in about 4 days anyways. We do not use the dead crickets in the garden (no garden). Some, we use for our isopods though.

      I get ours from Flukers
      They work for me.
      I’m noticing that you put the (what brand)?
      Water crystals and food (what kind of food )?
      In dishes as you described and demonstrated.
      Is there a reason why you don’t just throw it in there?

      @@AirQuotes848 Again, great questions. I hate when crickets don't last longer! For food- we use the new Supreme Feeder Food of course (on our store). Hight quality!!! For water crystals any brand (larger granules are better). I don't put the food on the floor as I really want to monitor how much they are eating. I DO put the dishes next to the egg carton so they have easy access.

    Hi! Love your channel. Are pomegranate leaves safe for isopods? I haven't been able to find an answer online

    • @SupremeGecko
      @SupremeGecko  3 місяці тому

      Hi. Thank you for the comment. This is more of an isopod question, but I'll answer here. There are so many great foods to feed isopods, like the Supreme Isopod Food, I don't try other more exotic type of foods. Think about nature and what they are finding there. If you feel pomegranate leaves are found by the specific isopods you are considering feeding, then try them. Otherwise, there really is no reason.
