Top Hat Cricket Sizes
The right cricket size makes all the difference for your animals. We offer a full range of sizes to match the feeding needs of reptiles, amphibians, birds, and more. Due to natural variations in growth rate, you may notice slight size differences between individual crickets — this is completely normal and part of raising a living product.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know my live crickets will arrive alive?
We guarantee live delivery on every order. Our crickets are packed with care using proven shipping methods designed to keep your feeders healthy in transit. If you have any issues with your order, contact our team and we'll make it right.
What makes Gryllodes sigillatus better than other feeder crickets?
The tropical house cricket is a hardier, more resilient species than the common house cricket. Most importantly, it is not susceptible to the Acheta densovirus, the disease that devastated cricket farms across the industry in 2010. Our stock is healthy, active, and nutritious for your animals.
Can I set up a recurring order for bulk crickets?
Absolutely. Many of our customers — from pet stores to large-scale breeders — rely on Top Hat Crickets for dependable weekly deliveries. Get in touch with our team to set up a recurring bulk cricket order that fits your schedule and volume needs.
