{"product_id":"large-silent-brown-crickets-1520mm","title":"Silent Crickets Pre-Pack - Large","description":"\u003cp\u003eLarge silent brown crickets are a staple livefood for a wide range of reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. Available in a 50 pack or a 500 bag, these pre-packs are dispatched directly from the breeder and gut-loaded before packing — so they arrive nutritious and ready to feed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy Large Silent Crickets\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSilent brown crickets are easy to catch, straightforward for animals to digest, and genuinely nutritious when fed correctly. The large size makes them well suited to adult reptiles, sizeable amphibians, and insectivorous invertebrates. They are a reliable daily feeder insect that works across a broad range of species setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBearded Dragons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater Dragons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeopard Geckos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrested Geckos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePacman Frogs and Bullfrogs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge fish and insectivorous invertebrates such as mantis and tarantulas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow They Are Packed\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrickets arrive in a ventilated plastic tub with egg-box cardboard inside, which increases surface area and gives the insects space to spread out — reducing the risk of overcrowding or trampling in transit. Air holes along the sides maintain airflow while keeping the insects contained. During warmer months the outer box may carry additional perforations for cooling; during colder months a heat pack may be included to maintain a suitable temperature on the way to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKeeping Them in Good Condition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore large silent crickets at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and draughts. Continue gut-loading them right up until use — fresh leafy greens, carrot, squash, or sweet potato all work well and help maintain their nutritional value. Remove any uneaten food daily to prevent mould or bacterial build-up. Provide size-appropriate housing with adequate hiding spots to avoid overcrowding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAnimal Welfare and Sourcing\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese crickets are farm-bred under ethical conditions and pre-fed before dispatch to ensure your animal is receiving a genuinely nutritious meal. Shipping five days a week via fast couriers means they reach you quickly and in good condition. If there is any issue with the size, condition, or quality on arrival, contact the Viperia team and we will resolve it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose the pack size that suits your feeding routine — the 50 pack works well for smaller collections or occasional use, while the 500 bag suits keepers running regular feeding schedules across multiple animals.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peregrine","offers":[{"title":"50 Pack","offer_id":54176501072209,"sku":"A502","price":2.66,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"500 Bag","offer_id":54176501104977,"sku":"A504","price":14.16,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/viperia.co.uk\/products\/large-silent-brown-crickets-1520mm","provider":"Viperia UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
