Cricket Breeding

>requires no active management....no daily spraying or moving crickets around
>only 5 minutes maintenance/container every 10-14 days (less time than standing in line at the pet store)
>so productive that the average family will be able to feed 4-12 bearded dragons (depending of feeding rate) just from their scrap vegetables
>thats over $1400/year cash you could earn from one bunch. You can make much more if you make additional containers.
>containers are easy to build, and most materials are made from recycled materials or from your hardware store.

Why haven't you started your own cricket breeding business Jow Forums?

Who buys fucking crickets?

how to deal with their constant shitting, pissing and chirping? what do they eat?

people who eat crickets?

Pet shops will buy live crickets in bulk to sell as pet food for customers

There are a lot of weird autists who obsess over reptiles, they spend hundreds of dollars a year to feed them. If you can corner a few petshops with your crickets and/or mealworms you can make some serious low effort money.

I think they're used as food for other animals like birds and lizzards.

>not making cricket burgers to sell to the chinese and africans

/cricket paralysis virus

Even in the OP he says that you make less than a k annually. No way I'm wasting my time on these noisy smelly ass bugs for pocket change.

$1400 for one small box, not hard to do more

David Fluker ships millions of crickets daily, he will sell you 5000 crickets for $64.50. Maybe OP can estimate his margin for us

fucking kek

they stink, a few die, gas gets released and you have a mini plague on your hands, dubai roaches are much easier to house and more nutritious, crickets are pleb tier.

HOLY SHI

Whip spider. A non venomous arachnid that lives in tropical places. Mostly they hang out in sheds and outhouses looking freaky.

Hey, spider fucks. This is a cricket breeding thread. If you don't want to make money then GTFO.

I used to have some of these fuckers when I was a kid. They only ate live crickets I was told. So I paid the fucking cricket masters every week to feed these guys. Then I got sick of paying the cricket tax so I started just buying dead frozen crickets in bulk, much cheaper. I would thaw them out before I fed them (its actually weird but occasionally a thawed cricket will actually survive being frozen for who knows how long and start chirping)

It took a while to train these guys to eat the thawed dead crickets. But eventually they got hungry enough to eat them. It might have fucked them up though because the frogs would start eating rocks and shit and drowning themselves. Except one actually became a cannibal and started eating other frogs. I thought he was a badass so I fed him other frogs for a while until he got loose one day. He only needed to eat a frog like once every week so it wasn't actually that much more expensive than the crickets. After he got a loose my mom found his dried up corpse flattened like a pancake in her shoes a couple weeks later. I used it as a bookmark for a while until it deteriorated too much.

What about the management do you just put 10 crickets in a box then empty a thousand out 2 weeks later?

Pretty much

So the work is in wrangling the contracts from local pet stores

The bearded dragon I had when I was a kid loved to eat them.

RIP buddy

Actually ecommerce. The crickets can survive the cargo hold on airplanes despite the high altitude and you can sell them at a premium that way.

release a few plagued crickets into competing cricket farms

What a fucking ride
This is why I come on Jow Forums

Dude crickets and bearded dragons are no joke but if you don't have the distribution then you're fucked. Think local pet shops and online presence.
My buddy did it for years had almost a 1000sqft shop dedicated to it breeding translucent dragons and insane amounts of crickets. Fairly sure he broke six figure some years if not on the regular.

Crickets can also be used as fishing bait.

this brings back childhood memories of pet toads i would keep as a kid, would just put one in my pocket and go about my day
