PURPOSE: Provided is a method for mass breeding cricket in a breeding chamber, thereby being capable of mass producing cricket containing a high content of omega-3 fatty acids as feed material for domestic animals or cultivated fish. CONSTITUTION: The method is carried out by placing egg receivers made of a well mixed fine soil and sawdust (3:2) so that 2 months old crickets lay eggs after crossbreeding. After the crickets lay eggs, the egg receivers are removed and placed over newspaper in a hatching vessel(300), followed by incubation on a upper rack in a breeding chamber(100) for 7 to 10 days with covering the egg receivers with another newspaper. After the eggs are hatched, the larvae are transferred to a breeding vessel(200) provided at the bottom with 3 paper egg storages which contains wet and rent newspaper over the egg storages. After raising the larvae to imagoes at 25 to 30 deg.C and 60% of humidity while feeding properly for about 2 months or more, the imagoes are freeze-dried and pulverized to obtain feed material for domestic animals or cultivated fish.
