How to breed crickets?

[Tobias&Jellybean]

I ordered about 250 and they came just a couple days ago. I fed a couple to my chams and then i started to wonder about breeding them. Is it hard? Is there anything i should know before i try? they are about 1/2¨ house crickets.
Thanks!

Basically if you’re willing to deal with the smell etc of them. This is how you do it. You want to place a couple adults, they have wings. The female have like a black “tail” on the end of them. The males don’t have one, you may grab like 2 males and 2 females. Place them in a small container with soil in it. Within days you’ll have eggs and boom babies crix.

But IMO I wouldn’t breed them. Just because of the smell lol, hence why I switched to discoid roaches. I’m breeding those now.
