This book, Breeding Food Animals, has quite a detailed section on breeding locusts. It even includes information on how to raise wheatgrass to feed the locusts.
It's a great book to have if you plan on keeping and breeding a wide variety of feeder insects.

Thank you i'm going to look into it a bit further before I start.

does anyone even sell locusts in the states?
