I put a full stop on using crickets. I find them gross, and they keep dying on me bc they rely so much on hydration. And they can get noisy. I only use mealies, superworms and dubias, which I all grow myself. The only thing I have to buy only for them is oatmeal, for hydration I give them veggie scraps from cooking (they all especially love carrot scraps & ends). I can use tiny mealworm 'hatchlings' for my smaller slings, big dubias for big Ts. I've got basically every size covered. They don't attract phorid flies so much, and they can survive for a very long time without hydration (at least 1 1/2 months, during my yearly 'long holiday' abroad). Cheers Dave & CamLady! Keep it up! 🤟

I use to raise and sell to pet stores in a few states around me (pet stores) and mice, super meal worms and crickets in large numbers. Plenty of air for my cricket breeder boxes to keep humidity reasonable was one of the number one things. I often used a few layers of news papers for their floors and cardboard egg cartons for their refuge. For water, I used clean sand in a shallow bowl. It is good to get any dead ones out as soon as possible. Things like Nats will multiply on dead ones and if there are any illnesses, if the health one eat at dead ones, will spred that illness.

The only thing I would add is to have 2 boxes. 1 with the crickets in and a spare to move them into if you want to easily change the substrate if it is getting messy and/or wet.

This is a great topic Dave, and I appreciate your very clear coverage. Keeping a hundred or so Crickets alive for as long as possible has involved some trial and error. In fact the whole greens thing is new to me. I've been using dry cricket food with calcium plus a dish of water gels. I did learn our local shop's delivery day and that has made a huge difference. Many thanks!

I have a tub of dirt in with my adult crickets for them to lay their eggs in, i them hatch them out for food for my slings. Works perfectly. Not had to buy food for slings for ages now. What doesn't get eaten gets the chance to grow to then be fed to my juvies. Don't think any have made it to adulthood yet, but it's hard to tell because of how many are in the cricket enclosure. I also keep my medium size up in a separate enclosure to the small size crickets. On occasion i do find big ones that have grown out among the small ones. Takes forever. For substrate, i use Aspen snake bedding. Only because that's what i already have for my snakes. Works well for me.

Sadly, the only pet shop we have where I live is Petco and almost always, their crickets in small boxes are mostly dead. I usually just go on Friday and get loose ones. They're $0.17 each. they never check the ones in the little boxes so they are almost always out of any type of food for hydration. The employees there don't seem to care about them either.

They need plenty of air changes, low humidity. If they get too humid they will start dying. I used to give mine bulk fish flake and carrot or orange slices. Avoid too much leafy greens as they raise the humidity, avoid cabbage as I think it might be toxic to them. You can hang sticky fly strips above to catch the phorid flies which seem to accompany bulk grown crickets etc. I wonder how some types of cat litter would go….I always meant to try it. I used to breed hundreds, probably thousands for research purposes at work and it isn’t hard to do.

I keep crickets, red runners, Dubias, Hissers ( and other types of roaches) in huge tubs/ bank boxes. Get the large egg crates for nothing, from a shop that saves them for me. I breed all mine and keep on top of cleaning them all. It saves you loads and keeps you in constant supply. I add to my roaches a couple of times per year, to add new bloodlines.

I have been keeping crickets for over 40 years.I bred with them in the past when I had more animals who ate them but only buy them occasionally once every two weeks.( I still breed mealworms, Dubia roaches and Pachnoda grub ((and buy the occasional locusts..)).) I gutload them with 100% organic food for at least 5 days before I feed them to remove the pesticides or herbicides in their system. (Its a fact that our non organic foods are contaminated with GMO pesticides or are GMOs itself because the breeder use the cheapest foods available..). Fresh raw veggies and organic weetabix and a little bit of porridge.I make my own H2O balls from orgincally drawn water for my livestock..however its not necessary and high water foods such as paprika, even a piece of tomato, Courgettes, fennel....everything organic...will do fine once bought from any shop. I use larger enclosures for any 'livestock' and cleaned lid tops from large water bottles or other food Jars to prevent spoiling.. Gut cleaning in tiny insects takes about 24-48 hours, depending on the species and contamination.After that its practically having a healing or healed digestive system (because GMOs destroy the gut lining) which then can start to absorb nutrients again which takes another 24 -48 hours...after day 5 the immune system of the insect starts to heal.and improve..Again it depends on the size of the insect and the content of contamination.But 5 days is a safe time after having been fed 100 certified organic foods...

I dont have any other creatures but for people who just keep spiders and other insects, i dont see the appeal for crickets. They smell, they can jump, theyre harder to keep alive, theyre more likely to eat your spider if they get the oppurtunity. Roaches are better in every way imo. And i understand people may think roaches are yuckier but theres so many species out there that theres gotta be one that you can just tell yourself is a beetle not a roach haha.
