You have already been told how many times - you can not keep grasshoppers in cans.
If you were kept in a 300l glass jar, how would you live? )))

I advise the company ferplast, although now they have risen in price. And they have several large holes in the lid that will need to be closed. I keep my own in geo flat maxi, I think it fits the size.
Just look in the nearest pet stores, there should be something suitable.

Pieces of cake... ice skates... wait, what kind of pies do you have there?) With fillies and porridge?

What about the cake? Be sure to feed the cake!
Well, well...
The cheapest containers should be found in hypersor household stores. Large plastic containers / containers. Make holes in them. Holes should be made with a soldering iron, not a drill, so as not to crack.
It is necessary that they have the opportunity to bask in the sun, so that there is water.
You can feed it with boiled walnuts, fruits.

I have observed that caught in late summer and autumn, they no longer live at home, but for completely unknown reasons die, sometimes the next morning. But this is not your case, it's not autumn yet.

And they're supposed to be dying at that time. They don't hibernate a second time (or is there something I don't know?)
I gave my friends dried lamb lungs (cat food) last year. I know it wasn't much, but the grasshoppers liked it very much and ate without consequences.
Proven food-raw oatmeal. They eat for both cheeks.

Reluctantly not in the subject to describe.
For example, in September, I find decticus, bring it home, put it in a terrarium.
In the evening, he seems to be sleepy, in the morning-dead.
He would still be living on the street.
This behavior applies not only to grasshoppers, but also to their food base - fillies.
Fillies can be caught in good weather and in October. And if in the grass they live literally to the snow, then at home they instantly (in the morning) die.
Tettigonias are exactly the same.

At the same time, if you catch a blacksmith in June, but they live at home until December (well, rarely of course), the main thing is that they do not die either in the morning or in a month.

ENO, how long do they have to live?
I thought: spring-hatch, summer-grow, autumn - hibernate, winter-sleep, spring - wake up, summer-become adults, reproduce, autumn - die

They thought wrongly. They overwinter in the egg phase. Imagos live until autumn (or winter, if you're lucky)

...
Well, I'll put it another way:
Autumn - eggs are going to hibernate, winter-sleep, spring - hatch, summer-grow, autumn - hibernate, winter-sleep, spring-wake up, summer-become adults, reproduce, autumn-die.

Winner-Ariner, this is already two-year-old grasshoppers are obtained, in my opinion, this does not happen here )) Empusa mantises have overwintering larvae, but they still have a one-year cycle, which I do not recall in erect-winged mantises and mantises. There are species that can lay eggs for several winters.

Winner-Ariner, concentrate! Here is the correct scheme for you: autumn-eggs are going to spend the winter, winter-sleep, spring-hatch, summer-grow, mate. lay eggs, fall-die.

In the case of migratory locusts, everything is not so-they lay eggs in late summer, after 6 months in early spring locusts hatch,molt, the last molt is somewhere in mid-April, in early May they fly in flocks, in the first mid-May they lay eggs, and hatch in early summer, but in mid-July this year Everyone in the imago is shedding, today I walk in the field but I don't see locusts in my field(where is it?)I may have come in early,but I started seeing it last year from July 24 to July 29. eek.gif

Time variations depend on the temperature. If it was a very warm and early spring that year, the locusts could have hatched earlier.
