Cricket hatching

Yesterday I saw a lot of my crickets laying eggs in the vermiculate laying boxes. I was wondering how long will it take for the eggs to hatch, and how long it will take after that for them to reach adult size.

10-14 days for the eggs to hatch at 82 F. Then 4-5 weeks to reach adult size. Make sure that you feed the babies vegetables or give them water in another way, as well as a good protein based food. Mine get cat food, and wheat germ with calcium supplement but in a blender and powdered, and carrots for water.
