I put a cricket into my H Laoticus enclosure today and it started laying eggs all over the place, then it ran under the bark so I was not able to reach it and it started to lay more eggs :/
I have a water dish and a waterfall in there, I know there is a way to get the babies to drown yea?
I knew something was up that cricket was pretty fat

Yepp, check the link I posted, there are pics aswell.
I think it takes around 10 days for them to hatch, depending on the temperature of course.

I had this happen to me but it seems like the babies just kinda died after a bit. Like 3 - 4 days later their just wasn't anymore. So do the straw method and don't keep the substrate as moist. The Emps will do fine for this short period but ofcourse don't dry it out. Best of luck to you.
