It is unlikely you'll find a website selling grasshoppers or stick insects as they are considered herbivorous pest insects whose transport is federally regulated.

If you're looking for grasshoppers as feeders, it'll be easiest to locate them wild in your area and culture them. I don't recommend the use of native stick insects as many feed on plants that give them chemical defenses.

Look into the classifieds section for flies as they're almost always available.

Thanks Ranitomeya. I'll try to catch some grasshoppers. I was looking for indian sticks because they don't spray chemicals and they multiply very fast. They also make good pets! I just found some housefly pupae for very cheap. thnx!
