Exo Terra Crickets XLarge 34gm 1.2oz
Cooked crickets, ready in the can — sized for bigger appetites. Exo Terra Canned Crickets (X-Large, 34 g) are whole crickets (Gryllidae) cooked in the can to preserve their natural aroma and nutrition, giving larger insect-eating reptiles, turtles, amphibians, fish and birds a feeder with no live culture to maintain and nothing to escape into the house.
Key features
- Single ingredient — crickets (Gryllidae), nothing else declared on the label.
- Cooked in the can — softens the exoskeleton for easier digestion, and needs no refrigeration until opened.
- X-Large cricket size — the larger size in Exo Terra's canned cricket range, alongside the Small can.
- No live-feeder upkeep — no gut-loading, no colony to maintain, no crickets loose in the house.
- 34 g can — sized for topping up a varied diet rather than as a sole food source.
Ingredients

Exo Terra does not publish crude fibre, ash or calcium/phosphorus figures for this product, so no calcium-to-phosphorus ratio can be stated here. Dust with a separate calcium and vitamin supplement rather than assuming this can provides one.

Feeding and directions
Feed a few crickets as part of a varied diet, or as a treat two to three times a week. Discard any uneaten portion after 24 hours. Refrigerate the can once opened.
Suitable for, and not suitable for
The larger cricket size suits bigger-mouthed insect eaters — adult bearded dragons, larger skinks and monitors are typical feeders for this size. Not a complete diet on its own, and Exo Terra does not publish a minimum animal size for this can, so use your judgement on prey-to-mouth size for smaller or juvenile animals.
Goes well with
- A calcium and vitamin supplement, dusted onto feeders before offering
- Exo Terra Canned Crickets Small, for smaller-mouthed insect eaters in the same household
- Fresh greens and a formulated pellet diet, so this stays a treat rather than the main food

Common questions
Is this size suitable for a juvenile reptile?
Exo Terra doesn't publish a minimum animal size for the X-Large can, so check the cricket size against your animal's mouth before feeding — the Small can is the safer choice for young or small-bodied reptiles.
Do I still need to dust these crickets with calcium?
Yes — the can carries no added calcium or vitamins, so a calcium and vitamin dust before feeding is still worth doing.
Can I use this as my reptile's main food?
No. Exo Terra markets it as part of a varied diet or a treat fed two to three times a week, not a complete diet.
How is this different from the Small can?
Same single ingredient and cooking process — the difference is cricket size, with X-Large suiting larger-mouthed feeders and Small suiting smaller ones.
