cricket eggs not hatching....

i've been trying to breed crickets for the past month now, and the crickets have laid numerous eggs, over a hundred. But, none of the eggs have hatched. i started off by using dirt from my back yard, then i tried potting soil, then dirt again none of those methods have worked. I keep it very warm in my house an keep the containers covered for most of the day so the dirt stays moist and it stays humid in the container. At night after my bearded dragons goes to sleep and his lights go off, I take the light and put it on top of my breeding cage. I've done so much research on breeding and i've tried just about all I can on my budget, and nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any advice for me, or know what I'm doing wrong? :confused:

They finally hatched!!! :)

They just started hatching about 2 weeks ago and now there is over 200 of them!! i'm very excited that my first attempt was a success. Now, I'm hoping I could find people who would want to buy some crickets because I'd like to start selling them. So if there is anyone in the owensboro area and needing crickets email me at [email protected]
