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. What is the easiest way to raise red worms?There are many ways to raise red worms. Here I share a simple and practical method of raising red worms using a flower pot. 1. Put a round sponge at the bottom of the flower pot (wet the sponge in water first), put some soil for raising earthworms on the sponge, sprinkle some water on the soil and mix well, not too much water. Spread the purchased red worms on the soil. Get a sponge about 2 cm thick that is as big as the mouth of the flower pot, soak it in water and squeeze it with both hands to make sure there is not too much water in the sponge, and cover the red worms. 2. Place the flower pot in a plastic basin and add three centimeters of water to the plastic basin. 3. Place the plastic basin in a cool and ventilated place, and avoid exposure to the sun; add some water to the plastic basin regularly to keep the water three centimeters deep. In this way, the water in the plastic basin can continuously seep into the bottom of the flower pot, then seep into the sponge at the bottom of the pot, and then seep into the nearby soil through the sponge, so that the soil is always moist, and the red worms can not only survive, but also absorb nutrients in the soil to grow. Regularly soak the sponge covering the red worms in water, squeeze out excess water, and then cover it. When it freezes in winter, place the plastic basin in a non-freezing place indoors to prevent the red worms from freezing to death, and do not cover the flower pot tightly without ventilation to suffocate the red worms. 3. What is the best way to raise red worms?1. Breeding conditions: Red worms like to live in micro-flowing fertile water. Artificial breeding must meet this condition. They will reproduce in large numbers in late spring and early autumn. They must be collected in containers. It is best to raise them with natural water and take anti-cold measures when the temperature is low. 2. Control the light source: Red worms like light, so the lights should not be turned off at night, otherwise they will easily die. 3. Water quality control: The water level can be slightly shallower during the day to increase the water temperature, and the water level can be deepened at night. 4. Feeding bait: Ferment rice bran, silt, pigeon droppings, sawdust, etc. into feed. 4. 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. 5. How to raise red worms in water?Red water worms like to live in fertile water with slow flow. Late spring and early autumn every year is the season when red water 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 water worms. 2. When raising a small amount of red water 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. In winter, you need to prevent freezing. Put a wet red cloth on the container to keep it moist. 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 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. 8. How to raise red worms?Red worms, also known as water earthworms, are actually the larvae of chironomids. They live in river and pond sludge, but require flowing and clean water. Red worms are the best bait for fish, containing high protein. They are also one of the popular foods on foreign tables in recent years, comparable to snails. There are specialized breeding farms. Rice bran, sawdust, banana peels, sugarcane bagasse, silt, pigeon manure, etc. are often fermented to make breeding feed. When breeding a small amount of red worms at home, the river and pond sludge can be taken back together with the worm species and placed in a clay pot or glass container. It is best to soak them with river water. If tap water is used for breeding, tap water should be placed in a large basin for 2-3 days in advance to remove bleaching powder and other substances before use. Change the water every other day. (You can also store the container in the refrigerator). When using, take as much as you need, put it on a clean, moist red cloth. In winter, it should be protected from freezing and placed in a box for heat preservation. If you spray it with wine, the shelf life can be extended, but it cannot be bred again and must not be put back into the original breeding basin. 9. How to breed red worms?Outdoor farming method: Cement pools or earth pits can be used. Generally, the pool is 1m deep and 10-30m in area. Use bleaching powder or quicklime 10ppm to dry clean the pond, expose it to the sun for 7 days, add 0.5m deep water, and then expose it to the sun for another 7-15 days before fertilizing. Put horse manure or other animal manure 1.5kg/m3 in the cement pool as base fertilizer. The amount of fertilizer applied to the earthen pond is 4kg/m3, with horse manure or other animal manure and 1.5kg of non-toxic plant stems and leaves such as straw as basal fertilizer. The purpose of basal fertilizer application is to promote the massive reproduction of algae in the water body and provide the necessary material basis for the growth and reproduction of Daphnia. Catch Daphnia from ponds or small rivers, wash and disinfect them, and then put them into the pond. When the water temperature is 18℃-25℃, Daphnia will begin to reproduce in large quantities after about 3-4 days. Catch them every 1-2 days, and catch about 10%-20% each time. After several catchings, if the amount of Daphnia decreases, stop catching, add new water immediately, and apply appropriate amount of topdressing. The amount of topdressing should be adjusted appropriately according to the changes in water color and weather. Normally, the pond water should be yellow-brown and the water transparency should be maintained at about 30cm. If the water is too clear, more fertilizer should be applied. If the water is dark brown or black-brown, less fertilizer or no fertilizer should be applied. When applying topdressing, multiple fertilizers should be used crosswise (manure, ammonia fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer, phosphate fertilizer, etc.), and do not use a single fertilizer, so as to maintain a dynamic balance of various elements in the water. Indoor cultivation method: Indoor cultivation is less affected by weather changes and the cultivation conditions are easier to control. The disadvantage is that it can only be produced in small quantities. Wooden barrels, glass jars and other containers that can hold a certain volume of water can be used as cultivation equipment. When cultivating, first inject clean water (natural water or tap water) into the culture container, expose it to the sun for 3-4 days, and add 1.5kg/L of fresh horse manure, 20g of fertile soil, and 2g of straw or stems and leaves of other non-toxic plants. Manure and soil can be added directly. Cut grass into pieces and boil them before adding. Then stir with a wooden stick and let it stand for 2 days. Finally, introduce the seeds. 8-12 per liter is appropriate. After 3-4 days, Daphnia will begin to multiply in large numbers. Fertilize every 5-6 days according to the fertility of the water.
