Silent Crickets Pre-Pack - Medium

Medium silent brown crickets are a staple livefood for reptile and amphibian keepers across the UK. Gut-loaded before packing and dispatched directly from the breeder, these pre-packs arrive in good condition and ready to feed — available in a range of pack sizes to suit how frequently you feed and how many animals you keep.

Why Medium Silent Crickets

Medium silent browns sit at a size that works well for juvenile reptiles and a wide range of smaller species. They're easy for animals to chase and catch, straightforward to digest, and nutritionally solid when properly gut-loaded. Their lower noise output compared to standard crickets also makes them easier to store at home without disturbance.

Who They're Suited To

Medium crickets are appropriate for a broad range of species commonly kept in UK vivariums and terrariums:

• Juvenile Bearded Dragons
• Juvenile Leopard Geckos
• Juvenile Chameleons
• Frogs and toads, including Pacman Frogs and Bullfrogs
• Mantids
• Tarantulas and other insectivorous invertebrates

Packaging and Transit

Crickets arrive in a ventilated plastic container with cardboard egg-box sections to increase surface area, reduce overcrowding, and keep the insects active on arrival. Small air holes along the container sides maintain airflow throughout transit. In colder months, a heat pack may be included to protect the crickets during delivery; in warmer months, additional perforations in the outer box aid cooling.

Keeping Them at Their Best

To maintain nutritional quality between delivery and feeding, continue gut-loading your crickets with fresh leafy greens, carrots, squash, or sweet potato — these provide hydration as well as nutrients. Specialist gut-load products can also be used to further boost their value as a feeder. Remove uneaten food daily to prevent mould and keep the holding enclosure hygienic. Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and draughts, and provide adequate space with egg-box or similar hides to prevent stress and losses.

Choosing Your Pack Size

These medium silent crickets are available in several pack sizes — from smaller pre-packs suited to occasional feeding or single animals, through to larger bags for keepers maintaining multiple vivariums or feeding on a regular schedule. Select the quantity that matches your feeding frequency to keep stock fresh and minimise waste.

Farm-bred and gut-loaded before dispatch, Viperia's medium silent cricket pre-packs give you a reliable, nutritious feeder that's ready to go straight from the pack — with the confidence that comes from buying livefood handled correctly from breeder to your door.
