That's why you should remove their hind legs.

Hi I know this is 5 years old , but I’m in the process of breeding locusts . How do you get a female locust because the majority of the locusts I buy online or in a shop are males

[@majentahaycock5531]

Do you plug your heat mat into a thermostat??

[@wisewarnanazara2820]

What is the size of those container?
How many liters / dimension?

[@jacksmith9886]

Stupid question... how do you keep the sand ‘damp’, mine dries up pretty quickly!

[@jamesleese5259]

Spray it?

[@djdamyxhdx2605]

Hi what temperature should i keep them? As well can i use vermiculite as the general substrate?

[@crotaphytusuk3050]

The temperature on the hot side is 37C. I personally wouldn't use vermiculite, just in case the locusts decide to eat some. I use bran.

[@sexygeek8996]

I just make them put up with the temperature that I like (15-20 C). Maybe that is why they rarely live more than two days.

What is the name of this grashopper ? 😊

[@sheldanthorpe2071]

90 degree Fahrenheit

[@kushinchannel7529]

are they need the light ?

[@kushinchannel7529]

or just need warm

[@zonester_exe9142]

KUshin Channel just warmth

[@zonester_exe9142]

But it’s better to keep them near a window with a clear tub I believe in a day and night cycle

[@crotaphytusuk3050]

I don't use any extra light, just the light which comes from the room. The day/night cycle is important.
