ive been catching grasshoppers and locusts this summer up in some big fields near my house, no pesticides to worry about up there, but i was wondering if anyone knows of any breeders that sells nice sized grasshoppers and locuts, so i can get some during the colder months, the buggies love them though :D

i am not sure about state to state, but i would bet many countries have some special, possibly strict, laws about hopper shipping. they can be a pretty big pests, something california seems to be a little sensitive about sometimes.

id buy them in a few hundred quantities, depending on price, they are awesome feeders, big and juicy
