My attempt to breed crickets

[duente]

dunno if it will work,i have been experimenting for a few weeks but last few days they have been singing day and night it's like sleeping it the country lool one big female was messing with the soil this morning hopefully there will be some eggs this heat cable is very good by the way (the small one 25 watt),it keeps a constant 27.5-28.5 degrees which is perfect for them,but they need water every now and then to avoid dehydration

good luck but i hear alot of things about breeding crickets.. mostly about the annoying noise and the smell... im thinking of breeding roaches though!... omg right when i type this theres a cricket on my wall.. i dont knwo how they get out...

 

[duente]

yeah i know about the "singing" and the smell which is not realy annoying unless you open the tank i just wanted to give it a try just for fun

what really annoys me is that even the silent crickets sing wTH

 

[duente]

yeah that i wasnt expecting actually coz these are the ones i have..i just thought they would..do it some other way lol until they started singing.well,if they become annoying i'll throw them to my neighbourgh's balcony hehe

Wow you've complicated things there haha.

Just chuck a tub of adult crickets into a bin with food egg crates and a place to lay and they'll breed like wabbits!

 

[duente]

yeah i wanted to keep things compact.we electronics guys sometimes overdo it hehehe

When I did it I had 3 dozen cricks, which I mated, then put 3 females to a jar and let them lay. I thought I had failed, so I reused some of the dirt in other setup for insects and after a little bit I had little hoppers!

I do it the easy way I through them in my spider cage and the little bugs lay egss every where But most dont live long seem to drown them selfs in the water dish thank you...Well good luck with the breeding.
