Live food website .

Hi all, I have noticed recently that the quality of the live food I buy from my local pet shop ( which I have used since ive been a leopard gecko keeper) has slipped eg half the tub being dead, and I was wondering whether anyone can recommend a good website where you can purchase live food from ( a uk based one if possible ) as there is no other suppliers I can really get to (until I pass my driving test). I hope to breed my own mealworms and locusts soon when I find the time.

Cheers james

I've heard monkfield is a good feeder insect supplier http://www.monkfieldnutrition.co.uk/

I understand how you feel.. a lot of the shops I buy my livefood from always give me dead bugs.. so I asked what day they get the new batch delivered and I go on that day so that they are more likely to be alive

Cheers for the link there standards used to be really good im not sure what has happened.

Maybe go to a different pet store?

theres a couple of other around but they dont sell anything for reptiles just things like rabbits and fish ect, bit of a pain really. I'll give monkfeild ago

awww that's a shame
I think Jordan, the admin, also knows of a good food supplier

thanks

James I used Surrey Pet Supplies last time after having the same problem as you and I am more than pleased, the mealies are in top condition and the waxworms are big fat plump ones, they courier them out the day they arrive in their store so arrive with you the next day.

thankyou

I've tried a few UK suppliers.
I've found rickslivefood is the best of what i have tried. I don't have a link right now but it's on google i'm sure.
