Here we highlight products at Living Science that you may not know about, or you may have seen on the product list, but you may wonder why we would carry this and for what purpose?
This month's spotlight is on "Crickets".
Crickets are insects somewhat related to grasshoppers and more closely related to katydids or bush crickets. They have somewhat flattened bodies and long antennae. There are about 900 species of crickets. They tend to be nocturnal and are often confused with grasshoppers because they have similar body structure, including jumping hind legs.
Crickets, like all other insects, are cold-blooded. They take on the temperature of their surroundings.
We provide crickets for feeding tree frogs, anole lizards, tarantulas, turtles, and leopard frogs.
Our crickets are gut loaded with High Calcium Diet Food.
