1. 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.

2. How are red worms cultivated?

It is advisable to choose a cool and humid environment, and the density of red worms should not be too high.

Water source: Red worms are afraid of pungent odors. If they are raised with tap water, they must be exposed to the sun for a few days to remove the chlorine.

Cleaning: Clean the breeding pots and dead red worms in time to keep the red worm breeding pots clean.

Feeding: Glucose can be used directly for feeding, 2-3 times a week, a few milliliters at a time.

3. 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.

4. How to breed red worms artificially?

1. Breeding method: The red worms in the breeding pond will generally lay eggs and reproduce in the spring of each year. At this time, fermented organic fertilizer should be regularly sprinkled into the pond to provide food for the red worms. After entering the summer, the pond water should be appropriately deepened. The water depth should be about 40-50cm. The red worms can be caught after they grow up.

2. Breeding method: Collect adults in late spring and early autumn during the day, collect them in the box in the evening and keep the temperature at 23-25℃, and the humidity should be maintained at 80-90%. After the adults lay eggs, the water level in the box should be 10cm, and there should be several small wooden sticks (2cm in diameter) for the adults to attach to facilitate egg-laying and reproduction.

5. How are red worms cultivated?

Prepare a container with a wide mouth, put some river sand and river water, and then put in the red worms.

There are specialized farms, most of which use rice bran, sawdust, banana peels, sugarcane bagasse, silt, pigeon manure, etc. to make feed after fermentation.

When raising red worms at home, you can feed them with yeast powder soaked in water, but be sure to control the dosage.

6. What are the breeding techniques for red worms?

1. Breeding pond: Bloodworm breeding is generally carried out on a large scale, so a breeding pond is needed. The number of bloodworms to be put in can be determined by the size of the breeding pond, and the water depth. When breeding bloodworms, the water should not be too deep. Generally speaking, 20 to 30 centimeters is more appropriate. In addition, some silt needs to be placed at the bottom of the pond, where bloodworms like to move around.

2. Food: The main food of red worms is plankton and organic debris in the water. When the water is rich in nutrients, the growth rate of red worms will be fast. Therefore, it is best to add some fermented fertilizer to the water regularly, so that the nutrients in the water will be richer. 3. Water quality: It is more appropriate to use river water or pond water to breed red worms, because such water is closer to the native environment of red worms, but tap water is more convenient. But don't use tap water directly. It is best to expose them to the sun for two or three days and wait until the chlorine in them is basically removed before using them. Red worms do not have high requirements for water quality, but water quality is closely related to dissolved oxygen, so water changes must also be done well.

7. How to breed and reproduce red worms?

How to raise red worms:

1. Red worms like to live in fertile water with slow water flow. The late spring and early autumn every year are the seasons when red worms reproduce in large numbers. They float on the water surface, often making the water surface brown-red. This is a great opportunity for us to collect red worms.

2. When raising a small amount of red worms at home, you can take the river pond sludge together with the red worms and put them in a basin or glass container. It is best to soak them with river water. If you use tap water for breeding, you should dry the tap water for 2 to 3 days in advance to remove bleach and other substances.

Change the water every other day. To prevent freezing in winter, place a wet red cloth on the container to keep it moist.

3. It is best to use a container with a larger area in contact with air, because the red worms will float to the surface of the water and make breathing-like movements, so if there are too many of them, some of them may not be able to compete for a position and die.

4.

Light source is necessary for raising red worms. You can't turn off the light source at night. You can use a small light source (such as a 5w night light, etc.) at night. Because red worms are too lazy to breathe, if there is no light source, they will die easily the next day.

5. There are specialized farms that mostly ferment rice bran, sawdust, banana peels, bagasse, sludge, pigeon droppings, etc. to make feed.

When raising red worms at home, you can feed them with yeast powder soaked in water, but be sure to control the dosage.

6. When the number of red worms increases, they should be collected and dried in time. In late autumn and winter, the reproduction capacity of red worms is greatly reduced. In winter, when the red worms are not seen in the water tank, do not pour out the water in the tank, because they are lurking in the green algae.

We can put the water tank in a sunny room or near a radiator. In spring, when the indoor temperature rises, the red worms come out again. When the room temperature rises above 28 degrees Celsius, the red worms begin to reproduce in large numbers.
