Cricket breeds -- different types

[unixmiah]

I just watched a show on dirty jobs about a cricket farm in GA- I had no idea you can
buy different types of crickets.

I've only seen one type on Amazon, Petco, Petsmart and online but I guess they have few different ones.

Does anyone or has anyone used them before? are some better than others?

Here are the different cricket species: http://www.ghann.com/Cricket-Species-Info.aspx

I've been using the Banded crickets for years and personally love them over the normal house cricket.
