Anyone know how long these last in the fridge before going bad?

Living crickets smell grody -- dead, rotting anything smells like decay. If they smell like something's rotting, I wouldn't use them.

Also, I haven't known many scorpions to take prekilled, so you may be better with live . . . although store-bought die quickly and smell . . . and my scorpions don't like roaches . . . and mealworms burrow. :evil:

That's my experience as well. I blame it on heavy cannabalism going on. Field crickets when wild collected also do kill and eat each other.
