    Nice video. Haven't read through the comments, so this might have already been shared, but here are a few things I find that help. First, I put a screen lid on my soil containers so the crickets can lay the eggs, but can't dig them up and eat them (and make a mess scattering dirt everywhere). Second, I find that my pinheads LOVE to eat fish food flakes. They devour it! I also look for flakes high in spirulina as this will help bring out colors in the pets I am feeding (in my case, mostly some colorful tarantulas).

    We have big forested area near our small town and after long hot days of summer, just before the rainy season kick in when the soil is moist due to a few showers of rain, the forest crickets are out on the street everywhere. I used to catch 'em with friends under lamp posts when I was young. It was so fun and painful at the same time, the little crawlers bite pretty hard, especially the big females and their spiky legs are so damn sharp and scratch the skin pretty deep. You gotta get a good grip on their thorax area with two fingers (thumb and index) otherwise it's a nightmare for the fingers. We would catch 'em the whole night and keep 'em in a bottle and our aunt would make a delicious fried cricket breakfast the next day =D They came out to breed but ended up being our breakfast haha...man.. miss those days..

    I know this is older but I worked at a reptile breeding place and we did crickets. I was in charge of the cricket breeding. I bred millions of crickets a week in a long cardboard box and lined the boxes in a plastic bag and they couldn't jump out just in case someone doesnt wanna mess with lid making. Our water dishes had the foam stuff from under carpets cut in the shape of the dish. It allows water but not drowning. We fed them crushed puppy chow. Crickets were so easy.

    I once used cosmetic sponges for the crickets to drink from and they laid their eggs in it! I kept re wetting the sponge so I guess it kept the eggs wet and I only found out the eggs were in there when I tried to squeeze the sponge and felt all these little grains in them....kinda gross but I put the sponge in a separate tub and they hatched out.

    Thx for the very informative video. I'd say one of the best ones I've seen so far. I've had my 2 baby beardies for almost 2 months & already getting tired of going to the store to purchase overpriced crickets! After, seeing how easy it is to breed them, I will definitely be putting together my own "cricket farm", tomorrow. It seems silly NOT to. Its inexpensive , your saving a TON of $$$ (I'm paying 11-13cents a piece here in Phoenix) in addition you can customize the diet of the crickets to ensure a heathy meal for your reptiles, amphibians etc. *Bonus* if you end up w too many, selling them at a low cost is a great way to earn some extra cash on the side. I'm actually excited to get started. I know I've got at least 4-6 females ready to lay eggs. QUESTION (This maybe a stupid one, but I'm asking anyway) , If you don't provide a place for the females to lay their eggs what what will the female do? will she still lay her eggs somewhere in the enclosure, the eggs will die and/or become food for the adult crickets? Thanks again! I'll update ya in a few weeks w/ my progress.

    I am responding to you guys right now sorry for the delay! If you keep the temperature high enough with a closed lid the earth should remain moist enough until hatch time. Same principle as plants when germinate them. So I don't see the need to mist unless you notive the earth drying out.

    +william waddell There is not enough ventilation in the container and it is being sprayed too often and/or with too much water. You can either poke holes in the lid or create a small screen ventilation, a tinier version of the ventilation shown for the main lid of the bins in the video. I've done this with window screen and glue. It's enough to let the air circulate but small enough to keep the moisture and humidity inside. The substrate you use should not be saturated or drenched. It should be lightly damp on the top, immediately soak in, and no water should be pooling. Also watch out for mold. Heat and humidity will quickly grow mold which will also kill them.

    The egg cartons can be used for 2 or maybe 3 batches. After that, since they are covered in cricket poop, they make a great place to start seeds for your garden. Just fill with potting soil (you can use the old cricket egg-laying soil) and start your seeds. After that, the cartons can go into the compost bin. Nothing wasted. Hope this helps.

    +flyhigh747 you can also chocolate them here is how: +Bubba Bedrock you freeze dry the crickets in to the shape you want, like standing up or laying on side whatever stick a toothpick into it about halfway melt your chocolate and it is best to put just a little wax like the gulf wax cakes i get at Walmart in baking isle this lets the chocolate harden faster so less melting and dripping take toothpick dip the bug into the chocolate to get a good cover then hold out of the chocolate for a few seconds for chocolate to stop dripping then get a piece of Styrofoam to stick the toothpick"s in to hold bug in place you may want to set them back in freezer a couple minutes for them to set good. Oh and if your chocolate starts getting to thick you can add a little hot water or reheat but keep adding just enough wax to keep chocolate a little shiny. "this can be done with any kind of bug you would like to try"
