From what I have read, on Jerusalem crickets, the females lay their eggs in a "nest" that is a few inches underground.
In the wild, eggs are laid in Spring and hatch in fall (during the rainy period).
I don't really know, for sure, but, if your JC eggs were laid on top of the substrate, maybe that could have been a problem.
Just a thought.
