Best video of cricket breeding I've seen so far. Like the sections showing male and female differences and the females laying their eggs was great. Question: How long do you leave the heating/lighting on for during the each stage.
Thank u so much I hv been looking for this great vid for a while ur the only one who covers literally everything🤗 I hv 2 very adorable leopard geckos who love their crickets 🙂
I am having some trouble breeding crickets. I have a tub with about 50 crickets. A tub of moist soil is in the enclosure. There is a light fixture with an incandescent bulb in the enclosure to keep it warm. I have not seen a single cricket lay eggs in the soil, I’ve had it set up for about 5 days. When I turn the lightbulb all the way up to make it about 85° the crickets all hide inside the cardboard as if they don’t like the light. When i turn the light way down , the crickets begin moving around again but don’t lay eggs in the soil (maybe because it’s too cool at about 64°). If anybody could offer me advice I would greatly appreciate it.
I try to raise cricket in my house (I'm from France :) ) and I'd like to make powder food to feed my crickets. I tried to blend some dried fruit. What do you think ? Do you have some advices, a recipe to make powder food for crikets ? I'd like to eat them :) Thanks you
Jackie, Aloha from Hawaii.... if you bake soil or nuke it before you place in egg laying bin, you can possibly eliminate springtails from being in your dirt.
Cling wrap makes half of the eggs not hatch, don’t do that please, just put it in a tub heat the tub up to 90 degrees farenheight at all times and they’ll hatch next day, also 10 days is too long if your actually wanting them to successfully breed 3-4 days is good
Why are you using the boxes I buy at Bunnings for Crickets... I use them, DD: Also, your egg laying box is a bit too big. U just had to use the exact same water crystals I bought from Bunnings, Boxhill Bunnings. Also, when you said "There is lots of babies moving around" 14:39, they are actually Springtails... with one baby before in the same tub. Apart from that the video is excellent!
CHEN Im learning this is only my 2nd batch I have every tried to breed. I got smaller tubs just used them as that is what I had at the time 👍 Yep Bunnings is awesome for everything you need for lots of different projects 😉
