Pinhead crickets in Saskatoon (help??)?

[Cas]

Anyone in Saskatoon have pinhead crickets (or flightless fruitflies, or anything tiny) right now? My house gecko laid two eggs back in April and one of them just hatched! I totally lost track of time, and I have nothing small enough to feed to this little guy! I'm going to put out some fruit in hopes of collecting some of the little bugs from my house plants, but if anyone has anything available I could get, please let me know...

do u have a pet land there or a pet store that sells reptiles if so then they will most likey have them there

[Cas]

Well, we have stores that sell reptiles, and we have a Petland, but they don't get crickets smaller than a week or so old... they managed to pick out a few fairly tiny ones for me when they got their last batch in, but they were still pretty large (compared to the gecko). So I'm still at a bit of a loss for smaller food items (I did throw in some tiny moths I caught in the yard, but I don't know how good moths are as a food source, and I'd rather not use wild insects if I don't have to).

Cas,

Try Krickets Unlimited here in Alberta - if you order enough they may ship to you. (403)782-7948.

Sorry I didn't think of them before!

Does Krickets unlimited have a website? It's about time I start ordering in bulk, I can't stand going to the petstores every few days for dozens of crickets!!!

[Jaylyn]

Nope - no website - they prefer word of mouth (don't know if this classifies as word of mouth, but...)

Good Luck!

Thanks all... actually, I just found out that the Petland here is ordering in some fruitfly cultures, so I'm going to give that a try.
