::Hi...I just wanted you to know that all your effots in posting such great info was very appreciated. I just happened to see this forum today and checked it out.

::Wow, I had no idea that crix were so easy to breed. I'm going to give it a try...my Bearded Dragon eats tons and my Tarantula eats them too.

::I've been paying $10 for 200 every week. They are aldults with some smaller guys in there too. I keep them on a soil substrate...do you think if I put a nice container in there with all of them that they might lay eggs for me? Thanks Patti

Yes, it is true that crickets do not like humidity. So in your case I would use a differet substrate such as oatmeal or something and just add a small dish of soil in with them to lay eggs in, this dish has to be moist though. The crickets will probably make a mess of this soil though and soon there will be soil mixed in with the oatmeal but this isn't a big concern. Overall I believe if you do add a dish off moist soil it should be littered with eggs within 2 days. I hope you do go forward with this because you can feed a lot more to your bearded dragon ad taratula ;). Just follow these steps I have posted and you should have baby crix. Any more questions I will be more than happy to answer, Keith

P.S.- Thanks for recognizing my efforts i this chatroom, I am always free to answer any questions you have.
