    I kept my crickets in a ten gallon aquarium. They had about 3/4 inch of soil. The soil I kept damp not to damp as mold will grow.

    They had a butter tub lid for water. I either used the commercial stuff or wet tissue.

    Another lid was the food. They have to be kept warm as they will not hatch and grow. Mine were in a reptile box with a 75 watt bulb. They had babies all the time.

    I have found raising mealworms is alot easier than crickets.
