[QUOTE="Prudance, post: 42665, member: 2448"] The banded crickets are what our local mom and pop pet store sells, so we use them quite often. They sell the banded crickets because they are hardier than the house crickets other pet stores sell. That is they can tolerate cooler temps and are more resistant to diseases. We noticed that they are definitely faster, more aggressive and more cautious. I don't have assassin bugs so I can't speak to feeding them. The T's however have to work a little harder to catch this little buggers which can make for some interesting shows. Our reptiles won't even touch the crickets anymore though. I do know someone who's reptile was killed because the crickets stared breading in the tank, so be careful of that for you assassin bugs. [/QUOTE]
