Grasshoppers reproduce sexually. "During reproduction, the male grasshopper introduces sperm into the ovipositor through its aedeagus (reproductive organ), and inserts its spermatophore, a package containing the sperm, into the female's ovipositor. The sperm enters the eggs through fine canals called micropyles. The female then lays the fertilized egg pod, using her ovipositor and abdomen to insert the eggs about one to two inches underground, although they can also be laid in plant roots or even manure. The egg pod contains several dozens of tightly-packed eggs that look like thin rice grains. The eggs stay there through the winter, and hatch when the weather has warmed sufficiently." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grasshopper

The male grasshopper releases sperm into the woman's vagina through her ovipositor (reproductive organ). The sperm then fertilize the female's eggs internally (the sperm get into the eggs through the mycropyals). After the egg gets fertilized, the female waits until summer and lays the eggs in the ground. She can lay up to 25 egg sacks, and she always lays them in a row. The eggs hatch and larvae then burrow up the surface, where they immediately become nymphs. Nymphs are originally white, but become of prolonged contact with sunlight, nymphs soon turn the color of adults. Nymphs molt their skin many times, and they grow up to become adult grasshoppers (they reach maturity at three months).

The sound that grasshoppers make by rubbing their legs together is a mating call. This is their primary means of calling out to another for mating purposes. The males are the primary ones to call.

Grasshoppers typically mate in the summer and fall months. They then allow their eggs to spend the winter in the soil to hatch in the spring when the weather is warmer.

Each species of grasshopper has its own individual mating "song" that is produced by a grasshopper rubbing its lower back legs on its forewings to create a chirping or clicking sound.
