Craig,

Honest answer on your your directions....sort of.....we ended up in someone's driveway...but not your fault....it was an adventure!
You are someone now I have the opportunity to talk to when I will have a problems with my blue gouldians.....

I have a lot of respect for you & what you breed or have bred...and I know now that if I have a problems I can call you...

One day White Breasted Crimsons? Who knows? But I know who to talk to.....

Cheers

Hello All,

Is Mini Beasts Enterprises still a valid company?

If they are and someone see's this post, please get in touch with me; or does someone out there know, how, I can contact them?....

I would like the opportunity to discuss the breeding of crickets & hopefully they will be cheaper to deliver from Melbourne to Sydney , than the hassle of doing it myself...
I was really impressed by the buckets that were used to house the crickets; we didn't see a dead insect & I'm thinking that the way Mini Beasts breed critters is the way to go; hence; the introduction to them by a member.

I think I'm becoming somewhat too blase, where I'm thinking the breeding of small crickets; someone else can have the headaches, in breeding disease fee critters and I'm happy to buy them clean....

It's certainly worth the premium paid....

Regards
Ripley

I was working on an Eastern Barred Bandicoot Recovery Program in Lara and generously Minibeasts provided us with free crickets that were post breeding for our threatened species program. I cant thank them enough for their contribution they were just amazing. Unfortunately as far as their website goes it seems to always have issues and the email addresses dont always work. So as far as contact goes I cant help but as far as a reference goes they were fantastic!

Now that the wife is off on maternity leave the husband is doing orders.I was told from now on they will supply me with crickets and mealworms only after the shop orders have been filled as my $120 a fortnight to three weeks on going order is not big enough. Great that is after getting them customers,and being stuffed around but keeping loyal to them.I was told that loyalty doesn't count to them they are running a business they will ring me if they have a kilo over after supplying the shops.Well that was 6 weeks ago and I still haven't heard back from them.Pity good company poor customer relations now.
So Ripley thats my resent experience with them they are still around as a business and thats how they now are running it.Not as a service to customers.Just happy to take your money when it suits them.I will say they supply excellent crickets probley the best I have seen.

Doesn't sound like their business will be running for too much longer with an A-hole attitude like that. It's amazing how moronic some people can be in terms of how to sustain and grow a business. I'd suggest there is probably hundreds if not thousands of dollars a week worth of potential regular customers they could pilfer via AFF but instead they choose to be imbeciles. OK, rant over, feeling much better now!

Why do you even waste your time with people like that, I've been buying kilo bags for quite some time at Shops where I live here near Penrith. Otherwise you can order online from http://frogs.org.au/arcade/
