1. How to breed red worms?Step/Method 1 1. The first step is to wash the worms. Wash the red worms in clean water for several times. After washing, let them stand for about ten minutes to wash away the gelatinous substances on the worms (mainly the carbon dioxide breathed by the red worms). This will allow the worms to be stored for a longer time. Whether you buy online or in a physical store, this step is essential. Step/Method 2 2. Choose a container of appropriate size according to the amount of bloodworms (generally speaking, the container mouth should be larger than the evenly spread area of the worms). Choose a wide-mouth bottle for easy later operation. The container can be made of plastic or glass. Do not choose an iron container. Long-term contact between iron containers and water will cause chemical reactions, thereby accelerating the death of bloodworms. Step/Method 3 3. Prepare an appropriate amount of sand. It is best to sift it with a dense-hole scoop bag. The amount of sand should account for about two-thirds of the volume of the container. Then wash the sand repeatedly several times to remove the dirt on it. Step/Method 4 4. Put the processed sand into the container. Do not press the sand in the container with your hands. Just pour it in naturally. This way the sand will be looser and easier for the red worms to breathe. After completing this step, spread the red worms evenly on the wet sand (the surface of the sand), and then proceed to the last step. Find a piece of thin cotton cloth, wet it with clean water, cover the red worms, and finally place the container in a cool place indoors. The entire insect breeding process is completed. Step/Method 5 5. Later care methods: If it is winter, you can pour a little water on the cotton cloth every four or five days to ensure the moisture of the insect breeding environment; in spring, when the temperature has not reached above 20 degrees, water it every two or three days. When the temperature exceeds 20 degrees, the container needs to be placed in the refrigerator's fresh-keeping room, and the watering interval is about three or four days. Step/Method 6 6. You can feed it with yeast soaked in water 2. How to breed red worms?Step/Method 1 When breeding red worms, prepare a glass container, put the selected red worms into it, and then inject clean and sterile natural water. If you want to use tap water for breeding, it is best to expose the tap water to the sun for 2-3 days to remove the chlorine in it to prevent poor growth of the red worms. Step/Method 2 Control light source The growth of red worms cannot be separated from light. Lack of light source will cause the red worms to have difficulty breathing and suffocate to death. When breeding, it is best to hang a 5-watt light bulb above the container to provide the red worms with sufficient light, allowing them to breathe freely and grow healthily. Step/Method 3 Water quality control When breeding red worms, the water should be changed once a day to keep the water clean. In the process of changing the water, the red worms and the container should be cleaned to remove the mucus to avoid the breeding of bacteria. The breeding water depth should be controlled at about 3-5 cm, and the water level should be deepened at night to keep warm. Step/Method 4 Feeding. Red worms mainly feed on organic debris in the soil, and they particularly like sweet and acidic baits. Poultry manure, domestic sewage, etc. are all their baits. In professional farms, rice bran, sawdust, sludge, pigeon manure and other raw materials are generally fermented to make feed. If it is a family farm, yeast powder can be soaked in water and fed. Feeding is also a key point in red worm production. Feeding in small amounts and multiple times can increase production. Generally, feeding is done once every 3-4 days, and 50 to 100 kilograms of manure is fed per mu each time. It is mixed with water and sprinkled throughout the pond. When feeding, pay attention to the amount of residual bait, and do not blindly feed more, so as to avoid excessive organic matter in the water body causing fermentation to produce toxic substances, affecting production. 3. How to raise red worms?In the process of artificial breeding, the water depth is generally maintained at about three to five centimeters. Especially in spring, when artificial breeding is carried out, the water level can be slightly lowered. This method can effectively increase the water temperature. Deepening the water level at night can effectively keep warm. Fertile water with a steady flow can allow red worms to reproduce in large numbers. At this time, you can place the silt and red worms together in a clean glass container and use some natural pure water for breeding. If you want to use tap water for breeding, you must place them under sunlight for two or three days before using them as reasonable breeding water. Change the water in time every day and take some very good warming measures. Red worms mainly eat organic fertilizers and like some sour and sweet feeds. Generally, they need to be fed once every three days. One mu of land should be fertilized with more than 50 kg of fertilizer each time, and a certain amount of water should be added, and then sprinkled after sufficient stirring. 4. What is the whole process of artificial breeding of red worms?Step/Method 1 Red worms grow best in fertile water with steady water flow. When breeding red worms artificially, you need to build a cement pond with an area of 10-50 square meters. The depth of the water layer in the pond should be kept between 3-5 centimeters, and the bottom of the cement pond should be covered with silt rich in organic matter. Step/Method 2 When artificially breeding red worms, there is no need to introduce species. When the water temperature rises above 14 degrees and the ambient temperature remains above 17 degrees, the chironomids will naturally fly to the breeding pond to lay eggs. During this period, it is best to keep the place quiet and not allow foreign animals to disturb the chironomids from laying eggs. Step/Method 3 It only takes 2-7 days for red worms to hatch. The newly born larvae mainly feed on plankton and organic debris. You can sprinkle decomposed organic fertilizer into the pond once every week to increase the organic matter content in the pond water, or plant aquatic plants in the pond to provide enough food for the red worms. Step/Method 4 Red worms are photophobic, so when breeding them artificially, you need to inject water into the pond when the light is relatively strong, so that the water depth is maintained at about 45 cm to prevent the red worms from being sun-dried to death. In addition, you need to build a pergola or sunshade net above the pond to allow the red worms to grow quickly. 5. How to breed red worms?Step/Method 1 Pool and density: When breeding red worms artificially, the number is generally large, and it is very common to breed them on a large scale. The first thing to pay attention to is the breeding pool and density. You can use a cement pool to breed red worms. The depth of the water can be controlled at 20-30 cm. It does not need to be too deep. Some silt can be placed at the bottom of the pool. The number of red worms should not be too large, otherwise the dissolved oxygen in the water will be insufficient, and there will be insufficient food. Step/Method 2 Food: There are many kinds of food that red worms can eat. Some red worms only eat meat, while others are omnivorous and can eat both meat and vegetables. Even some bacteria can become their food. If you are breeding red worms artificially, you can also add some glucose to the water, which will help the red worms grow better. Step/Method 3 Water temperature: When breeding red worms, you need to pay special attention to the water temperature, because the water temperature has a relatively large impact on the growth and development of red worms. Red worms are more afraid of heat, but not too afraid of cold, so it can be kept at around 10 degrees, or even more than 10 degrees. When the temperature is suitable, the growth and reproduction speed of red worms are relatively fast. Step/Method 4 Water change: When breeding red worms, you must pay attention to water changes, otherwise the water quality will be poor and the dissolved oxygen content will be insufficient. The specific frequency of water changes can be determined according to the state of the water in the pool, and the water quality in the pool can be monitored in real time. Step/Method 5 Light: Red worms don't like strong light, so try to keep the pool darker. If there is strong light during the day, it is recommended to cover it in time. 6.

How to raise red worms at home?Raising red worms at home is a common idea among many outdoor anglers. If you really ask how to raise them, most of them may not know. The red worms you usually buy are not easy to survive in water, and it may be even more difficult to raise them. Can you raise red worms at home? The answer is yes, but you may not have the patience to raise them and give up halfway. First, red worms cannot simply be soaked in water for a long time. You should add river mud or pond mud, preferably with more sand. The water should also be natural water, not tap water, because tap water contains bleach, which will kill the red worms. It is best to change the water once a day, because the water in the natural environment is flowing water, or slightly flowing water. Second, the breeding container. It is best to use a wide-mouthed glass container for breeding, as this container has a large contact area between water and air, high dissolved oxygen, and good light. Third, the light source is very important. When breeding red worms at night, there must be sufficient light source, a small-power bulb will do. Anyway, the light source must be sufficient. When the temperature is high, the red worms will float to the surface of the water to breathe fresh air and bask in the sun. 4. Food. The food of bloodworms is similar to that of earthworms. Bran, fruit peels, sugarcane bagasse, fermented poultry manure, and even silt can be used as food for bloodworms. 5. Temperature. Never freeze red worms, as they will die if frozen. It is best to keep the temperature above 20 degrees. When the temperature is above 25 degrees, red worms can reproduce. |
