Medium Silent Brown Crickets 8-12mm

Medium silent brown crickets are a staple livefood for a wide range of reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. Dispatched directly from the breeder and gut-loaded before packing, these pre-packs arrive ready to feed — in a size that works across juvenile reptiles and smaller adult species alike. Available in a range of pack sizes to suit your feeding routine, from top-up purchases to bulk supplies.

Why Medium Size Works

Medium silent brown crickets sit at a size that makes them accessible to a broad range of animals — small enough for juveniles and compact species, substantial enough to be a worthwhile meal. Their soft body structure makes them straightforward to digest, and their relatively calm movement makes them easier for animals to catch than many other feeder insects. They're a practical, versatile choice whether you're maintaining a single vivarium or feeding a larger collection.

Packaging and Transit

Each pre-pack arrives in a ventilated plastic container with egg-box cardboard included to increase surface area, reduce overcrowding, and give the crickets space to spread out. Small air holes along the container sides maintain airflow throughout transit. Seasonal adjustments are made where needed — additional box perforations in warmer months, and heat packs included during cold weather to help maintain a safe temperature during delivery.

Keeping Them in Good Condition

To make the most of your pre-pack, continue feeding the crickets until they're used. Fresh leafy greens, carrot, squash, or sweet potato provide both hydration and nutrients that carry through to your animal. Remove any uneaten food daily to keep the container clean and prevent mould. Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and draughts, with enough space and hiding spots to reduce stress and mortality.

Who These Are For

Silent brown crickets are a reliable daily feeder insect suitable for most insectivorous reptiles and amphibians kept in a vivarium or terrarium. They're particularly well suited to keepers who want a gut-loaded, farm-bred livefood that arrives ready to use without additional preparation. Choosing the right pack size for your setup means less waste and a more consistent feeding routine — select your preferred quantity from the options above.
