Ive tried breeding crickets..not much to it.
get a starter batch of medium (1/2" )crickets...let them mature(few weeks) in a ventilated escape proof container. When the males start chirping, keep small dishes of loose soil in with the crickets.. rotate "used" dishs out and replace with new about every week. keep the used dishes moist and in a warm place in a escape proof container. should hatch in 5-10 days.
you can keep batches seperate by date of hatching or keep them all together. Remove large crickets from young....young might become a snack for the adults. after a month or so you should have plenty of pinheads to 1/4" size.
im starting a Hisser breeding colony but no nymphs yet
good luck
