Jim Senkowski Nov 04, 2003 10:21 PM

I was interested in breeding my own crickets. If anyone has any information or links they could pass along I would appreciate it.

Jim-

Dennis posted a good link for info on breeding crickets. I have been breeding my own cricket supply for some time now. You don't realize how much you spend on food until you breed your own and see the savings. On top of that I get much healthier crickets and no DOA's. I have 1000's of crickets of different sizes and my weekly losses are in the single digits. Give it a try, it may take some time to get the routine down, but when you do, you will have more then you know what to do with. Hope this helps!
