i use a cheap storage tub out a home depo. only cost me a couple of quid. its big enough to stop them jumping out. i just put in egg carotns for them to him, some veg for moisture and pro grub for dry food/gutload.

as for breeding if their adult crickets they have probably already been breeding, just put in a tub of moist potting soil or similar and they lay there egss in there, take it out and 2-3 weeks later u will have hundreds and hundreds of tiny little crickets running about.
