I think you're talking about some sort of Jerusalem cricket. I'm not sure of temperature/humidity, it depends what species. They eat dead stuff and smaller insects.
I love crickets, remember catching huge thumb size crickets way back when I was a kid in Thailand. But than again maybe I was just small so everything seems bigger than .
No, it isn't. That's like saying the term for donkey is 'horse'. Wetas are native to New Zealand. This is a White Kneed King Cricket. Native to Australia.
Does it really biger than Tarbinskiellus portentosus?
It is really grilidae species and reaches 6+ cm of BL in female.

What enclosure are you keeping your king crickets in? Found some for sale @minibeast wildlife. They're up for sale again so I won't miss this chance. I just can't find a good enclosure online that's 25 cm deep because apparently they dig deep burrows, or can I just give them a hide?
