Description: A system for breeding locusts, which requires feedeng/watering only once per cycle
I've been experimenting with breeding locusts with the intention of selling them dried for human consumption. It has been a full time effort for over a year and I managed to do hundreds of experiments. While due to local law and bureaucracy I haven't been able to sell, I have been able to devise a simple system in which they grow from egg to adult without a single human intervention. I've mainly done this with Locusta Migratoria, but the same or slightly adjusted system should work for S. Gregaria as well.
The system requires 4 general areas to be maintained and to click together: Feed, Water, Containers, Environment. These are detailed below.
Use super-high quality hay from Annual Ryegrass. Stuff enough of it in hexagonal wire mesh container.
