Answer 2

The females are probably laying eggs in the dirt if it has been kept damp. You need to take the dirt out after a few days and incubate it separately from the adults. Cricket eggs take about 12 to 14 days to hatch when kept at around 80 F. They will be the size of fleas and drown very easily. I used to feed mine flaked fish food and orange slices for moisture.

Answer 3

i also have crickets for my bearded dragon they are much cheaper ordering on line enough said...i have a rubbermaid container that is about 30 inches long, i drilled very small holes in the top the container is clear. you should not use dirt in the bottom you should use newspaper so it will be easy to keep clean otherwise they will all die yu need to keep them at around 70 degrees but not in the sun, you need to provided them with water ina shallow dish with pebbles in it like the ones for the bottom of a fish tank to keep them from drowning in the water, you need to provide an orange for water as well as vitamins and they will need to have enough food to eat so they will not eat each other you have got to keep them entertained by using papertowel rolls toilet paper rolls and egg crates of cardboard the more theyhave to amuse them self and hide they will unlikley fight and kill each other you can provide them with healthy foods such as carrots, potatoes but they will eat about anything just keep the living quaters clean otherwise they will die from bacteria if you find any dead in the cage

Answer 4

Get some of that gut load from a pet store you want to give them plenty and make them feel like the area can hold more. And crickets arent going to mate lay eggs then hatch in one day give it time.
