Help with breeding crickets

[miguelanaconda]

Hi.
I originally had some mealworms for my leopard gecko, but I decided to alternate with crickets.
I bought a medium sized box of them, with like 30.
I thought they would not breed, as they take a long time to reach adulthood.
I was finally going to give up untill i saw thousands of tiny crickets crawling around.
I use egg cartons and use eco earth as a medium for laying eggs.
They star to lay eggs when you see some of them with ovopositors, thin ''sticks'', as I call them.
The eggs took about 2 months and a half to hatch.
Picks of where i breed them.
Keep the medium moist at all times.

lots of videos on youtube on breeding crickets, but i'd go with roaches also because as people are telling you crickets are messy, stink, and make noise.

So your saying roaches will be better for green tree frogs?

If so, how much should i feed one a week?

Also, do they still need calcium powder?

Roaches are better feeders for any reptile than crickets. One roach is like eating 2-3 crickets. Yes you still need to use the calcium powder for the roaches just like the crickets.
