I buy and breed my feeders. Keep the crickets dirt that the eggs are inn damp and hot. That's the only trick I can think of. I also feed Dubia and red runner nymphs. It's not easy affording all the feeders
but they have to eat.

I have never had good luck at hatching them in just a warm room. I would add a heat pad or heat tape and set the temp to around 90 in the tube.

hmmmm maybe thats what i should do. ill get a heat pad and put it under the dirt side then after egggs are laid, remvoe the bin and place in another bin with the heat pad.....

That's funny I have a hard time getting my crickets not to breed. Right now I have 100's of pins running around my Leopard Torts enclosure because one female cricket got in there
well dont you just feel special?
i always find a few pinheads here and there when the adults are in bins not set up for breeding, but they never last long, and i never get enough to feed my smaller guys.

Use a sieve. the soil/sand should drop through leaving you with the crix. Or vice versa, the crix drop through but the soil doesnt. It should work. Its the only way I can imagine cricket breeders manage to seperate theirs.
