Crickets

[UncleChester]

Humidity is 50-60% (I mist them well once a day.) Temps are in the low 80's. Im thinking its too cold for them to grow properly. I guess I will have to wait for summer to try again.

My temps translate to about 62F to 78F, and I have a few nearly full sized ones after about 6.5 weeks.

What kind of diet are you using? Mine have some oatmeal and bran whizzed up in a food processor (this is primarily for the mealworms, but the crickets get some), kale, swiss chard, and higher-end cat food ground up into a powder with some skim milk powder mixed in. They get the cat food remnants that I sweep up after the felines have made a mess.

I feed them dry cricket commercial diet, and oatmeal. For wet food I give them whatever my Bearded Dragons are having. Things like Kale, Romaine, Carrot, Green pepper, Squash etc. I am shocked to learn that my temps are not the problem.
