 How do I breed crickets?

I’m making a guide to breeding the black cricket which I’ll post on my website tomorrow. It will have all the details on what to do, unlike most of the other guides on the internet... I’ll post a thread here when I’ve uploaded it :)

 How do I breed crickets?

#1 a tank at least 10 gallon
#2 Egg cartons
#3 Cricket food & water (get at pet store)
#4 Ziplock sandwich container
#5 nesting substrate (coconut fiber works well)
#6 20-50 Adult crickets

After you get all of that set the tank up with the materials and put the substrate in the container and moisten it then put it in the tank for a couple days you will see the females dig in it and when you do they are laying eggs. After 2 days take the container out and use another tank or a licorise container with holes as an incubator keep eggs warm 80-85 set it on a computer modem or a heat pad and a few weeks you got babys. any questions just let me know
