A cricket usually lives less than one year, though as , if they can find a warm house, or better, someone to make them a home and provide water and food, their life span can be lengthened. As a rule though, as winter approaches, the female will look for the perfect spot to lay her eggs. This is generally on the ground. When spring arrives, the new cricket, or nymph, hatches looking very muck like an adult cricket, only minus his or her wings. Through several molts, casting off their skin, they grow larger, and develop their wings. Below 32 Degrees they will die so most do not make it through the winter.

Life Cycle Egg Immature

Nymphs Nymphs Adult Month Note: Coloured bars indicate periods of peak activity in each of the life cycle stages The black field cricket has only one generation a year, but the life stages overlap considerably. Overwintering takes place in the egg stage; eggs enter diapause [a resting state] a few days after being laid and then require a prolonged cold period before they will hatch. From hatching the nymphs take 2-4 months to grow into adults, which then live for 2-3 months. The females lay throughout almost their entire life-span, producing some 500-2000 eggs. The smaller nymphs live and hide within the pasture, and this makes them very difficult to detect. Adults and the larger nymphs, when not feeding, tend to shelter in cracks in the soil or under dried-out cow-pats or any other suitable litter. Although this cricket is essentially a ground living animal, in plague years there are occasional mass flights from particularly densely populated areas.
