Pregnant cricket...?

Yeah that's the thing about the cricket breeding I'm worried about, is having too many. I'm only going to have four frogs, and that's after the P. Tomopterna get here next week. I don't think I'll need 600 crickets running around for four frogs. XD; The P. Tomopterna are thin-bodied too, I don't think they're going to eat that much. D:

But for the future it's a good idea. I plan in the long run on having 7 or 8 frogs, including two darts and some more monkey frogs (Idk which kind yet). So that would work out for later on, but right now I don't think I have the space or the patience. Plus I don't want crickets escaping and running around in the house, that would just be bad. >< I don't have a basement or anything where I can contain them unfortunately.

Theyre right in my loft style house. No basment no eacapes. For less crix use less adults. Maybe 2 of each would make 200, and that would have to last u 3 weeks while the others grow up.

I see...I guess I could do it on a smaller scale...hmm...maybe I'll just take two from my existing bunch and throw them in a seperate container with some wet dirt in a cup...but how do I know when they've laid eggs...? O:

i got told that all females crickets have eggs in them from only a couple of days old and they only lay them when they fully grown and if you got anything like sand dirt andits becomes moist then she will lay her eggs and only takes 3 or 4 days before they hatch and they can lay up to 800 eggs but once they have hatched they intend to get eaten but other/older crickets.

so if your thinking of breeding them get a chinese container or something make a alaminium lid for it as the crickets would eat through fibrglass one's

only fill the container up half way with some type of substrate and that keep alot of moisture then remove it and put it into another container 15 gallon. but make sure you put some masking tape of some sort half way around the cantainer to stop them from crawling out then yeah
