CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to raise spiders (How to raise golden spiders)

1. How to raise spiders and what should you pay attention to?

How to raise spiders:

1. There are many species of spiders, and they have a variety of diets, are resistant to hunger, have strong vitality, and are easy to raise. As long as they have food, water, and shelter, they can be raised normally. For example, the main species of spiders raised as pets at home are: bird spiders, black widow spiders, golden spiders, burrowing wolf spiders, Chinese wolf spiders, big-bellied orb spiders, etc. These are all non-toxic spiders with high economic value and are very suitable for novices to raise.

2. For raising hunting spiders, generally large-mouthed cans, wide-mouthed bottles, and specimen bottles can be used as raising tools. However, the bottle mouth should be sealed with double-layer gauze and some twisted cardboard or small firewood stalks should be placed inside for the spiders to climb and hide. For raising web-making spiders, the spider cage is made of white plastic window screens, with a length, width, and height of 20 cm each. A circular hole with a diameter of 10 cm is opened on one side of the cage, and a cloth bag with two empty ends is sewn to the edge of the circular hole as an operating hole. The cloth bag is usually tied with a rubber band and opened only when operating. The four corners of the cage are fixed to the cage frame with four cloth straps to fix the spider cage into shape.

3. Regarding the feeding of spiders, the smaller the spider, the higher the feeding frequency, and the larger the spider, the lower the frequency. Spiders do not need to be fed for a period of time after molting, because their exoskeletons have not yet hardened. Feeding live feed at this time may cause harm to the spider. Similarly, if the spider stops eating, the live feed left in the breeding box must be removed to prevent the spider from being harmed during the molting period. Now raising spiders is becoming more and more popular and fashionable. Spiders as alternative pets have been accepted and loved by more people. But when raising spiders, you still have to pay attention. Because spiders are poisonous, but the degree of toxicity of different species of spiders is different. In the process of raising spiders, you must be careful not to be bitten by spiders, and disinfect them in time when you are about to be bitten. And the breeder must not raise spiders with very strong toxicity.

2. How to raise spiders?

You can put the spiders in a plastic box, make a few ventilation holes around the box, and put an escape-proof net on top of the box. We just need to catch some mosquitoes or small caterpillars on the leaves to feed them every day, and they can grow freely inside.

3. How to raise spiders so that they will get close to you?

1. Prepare a ventilated breeding box, put coconut soil, sterile soil and other substrates in it, and place hiding holes and fake trees according to the habits of the spider species. Spiders need to hunt by themselves. There is no need to put too many unnecessary objects in the breeding box.

2. Keep the breeding temperature between 17-25℃ and the humidity at around 65%. You can put a small water cup with some cotton in it.

3. Mainly feed crickets, locusts, moths, etc. The remaining food residues should be cleaned up and the coconut soil should be replaced regularly. This substrate is easy to breed bacteria, and if it is not replaced in time, it will easily cause the spider to become sick or even die.

2. What should you pay attention to when raising spiders?

1. The breeding temperature should be around 25℃. The temperature difference between day and night should not be too large. Pay attention to cooling down in summer to prevent heatstroke, and pay attention to heating up in winter to keep warm.

2. Adjust the humidity according to the species of spider, generally keep it at 65-70%. If it is too low, the spider may become dehydrated.

3. A good ventilation environment can make spiders strong, reduce diseases, and help them safely pass through each molting.

4. Avoid direct sunlight.

5. The spider's molting is controlled by the secretory hormones of the secretory cells in the ganglia of the brain and the abdominal ganglia. There are usually signs. First, the spider's activity decreases before molting, and it looks for a quiet place, does not eat or move, enters a semi-dormant state, and other metabolic activities are in a weak state; second, the body shape, the abdomen is obviously enlarged, the skin is rough, the body segments are clear, and there are cracks.

3. What are the varieties of pet spiders?

Common pet spiders include the Intellectual Red Rose, Intellectual Fire Rose, Mexican Red Knees, Mexican Fire Legs, Honduras Curly, Guatemalan Red Tail, etc.

Some spiders are docile, but some are poisonous and aggressive. We should try not to handle them directly during daily breeding. It is best to use tools to touch them.

4. How to raise spiders, what do they eat, and do they drink water?

Find a plastic box or fiberglass, square or rectangular with a lid, not too small, at least 20 cm in width and height.

Put at least 3 cm of coconut soil in the spider's home. If you can't find coconut soil, use ordinary soil (not humus soil). Use a small spray bottle (available at the entrance of elementary schools) to spray water. Don't cover the soil. Stop when the water covers half of the soil.

Find a wooden block or a solid object (such as a stone) that is 2 to 3 cm higher than the box and place it diagonally inside the box. Insert it at least one-third into the soil.

Spiders drink water, so use a mineral water bottle cap to fill it with water and place it in the box, not next to the wood. Do not spill water on the spider.

If it's a spider smaller than your thumbnail, if it's a spider with its wings ripped off, if it's an insect smaller than a spider, anything will do.

Don't feed it too much. Feed it with insects that are smaller than the spider, and they must be alive. After the spider has built a web, throw a live insect onto the web and it will come to eat it. Feed it once a day, and it will not die even if you don't feed it for a week.

The spider in my house is still full of energy even though it has not had any food for half a month.

Note that the spiders I have are high-quality spiders, not other types. Add water every three days. Place them in a dark place, away from the sun. Put a forked branch in the box to make it easier for the spider to make a web.

Under the wood block is the spider's home
