Think its too hot?

[AllGeckos]

I live in Arizona right now the temp will be about 90-100 till about noon and climb to about 110 till 8 ish do you think I would be able to get some crickets here alive? I don't know only if they did night drops!

Hmmm maybe your gonna wanna have the cricket provider ship them with some cold packs.

I would suggest that you buy from s supplier close to you. It's that hot here so when we get our orders from Sunshine the cold packs feel like warm packs but somehow everything is still alive.

 

[AllGeckos]

cold packs uh good idea. I can buy locally, just can't afford it anymore thanks for the idea

 

[Mel&Keith]

I just meant order from a supplier in a nearby state. There are quite a few suppliers on the west coast that you should be able to order from and not have DOAs.

Oh ok yeah I use a company out of FL I will look out here

I just ordered some from Flukers, and told them to have it held at a FedEx location. I provided the address of the FedEx that I wanted to use. Worked great. No DOAs.

I always do that for any live critters.

If you have something really sensitive coming in. The following location is the first stop from the airport. This is where they sort the packages to go out to the rest of the valley. Pick up there = least amount of time on a truck.

Fed Ex

Thats a good Idea Thank you I will def. keep that in mind whenever my next order is!

I placed another order with a company out of Cali. All was well again. Held at a FedEx close to my house.

Everyone was eager to know why I needed so many crickets. They were chirping up a storm and driving a few workers a bit batty.
