Thanks guys
I did speak to her about the quality and longevity issues, she said they had a huge flood, mould got in the food and the crickets started dying cause of this. apparently mould + crickets = groot akkies.

She said they got rid of all their stock, imported new and are back to what they used to be.
I am getting some samples today, will post some pics when I get home later.This is what she is sending :

1 x Econo 25 (500ml) x 1/2 size
1 x Lite Bite (1L) x Adult size
1 x Hunga Busta (Half Bulk) x 3/4 size
1 x 25 Giant Superworms
1 x 20 Adult Turkistan/Forest roaches

Thanks for all the inputs, really appreciate it. Like I said, I am hopefully set with feeders for a while, main idea was to see if I can get a steady and reliable source of quality feeders for anyone on the forum who might be interested.

Your forest roaches should survive longer than the crickets, years to be exact.

In that case they have alot of work to get there name up to par again.

Hi guys

here are some pictures of the samples
sorry about the quality, my camera went bust and best I got now is the wife's crapberry...lol

Like I said, I don't pretend to be an expert or anything, but if there are better quality crickets and roaches and worms out there, I would like to see them.
I stopped at a few petshops during the last two days, just to have something to compare them to, and nothing comes close. These are the healthiest and best looking by far.

Any one in the Centurion/Valhalla area is more than welcome to come have a look.

I can't load them at the same time for some reason....

some more

The best way to test the batch is with pinheads and adult crickets - Keep them at 25 Deg Cel and see if they last a week
