Copulation-Readiness
|
|
The indication of the copulation readiness means the time from the last molt to the first copulation readiness. It's only a notion and depends on the aviable food and keeping conditions.
|
|
| Male |
ca. 1 week after the last molt |
| Female |
ca. 1 week after the last molt |
| |
|
| | Eggs | First building |
ca. 2- 3 weeks after the last molt |
| | Place |

|
| | Breeding | Temperature |

|
| | Hint | Per year exist 2 generations. The egges of the spring- generation need no diapause. The eggs of autumn/ winter should do a diapause of 1 month. This is required for a better hatching- rate and stability of the young nymphs. If several generations do not have a diapause, less larvae will hatch till the clade collapses.
Depending on keeping, it is possible, that there is just 1 generation/ year.
The chirring of the males, which gave the crickets its name, has a high continous keynote, overlaid by short chirup intervalls. In contrary to most crickets, the singing does not sound metallic and is more convinient. |
