1. How to breed mountain cockroaches? What are the basic conditions of breeding? What is the market price? Please answer.Mantis breeding technology: (I) Identification of males and females and selection of species. Male cockroaches are long and narrow in appearance, with thin abdominal segments and wings extending beyond the tail end. Males are more numerous than females in winter and spring (December to April of the following year) when the temperature is lower. Generally, males have a shorter lifespan than females. Female cockroaches are sturdy in appearance, with enlarged abdominal segments, blunt and rounded abdomen and tail, and wings close to the tail end. After the nymphs hatched from the same egg pod emerge, the number of females is 1.4 times that of males, so there are more females than males from May to November. It is best to introduce species from April to June each year, and capture large individuals from nature for breeding. In terms of male and female pairing, there should be more females and fewer males. Cockroaches mostly emerge from their tails in May and June; male and female cockroaches begin to mate one week after emergence. Nymphs hatched from the same egg pod mate one week after emergence, and can lay eggs 10 days after mating. Males can mate many times in their lifetime, while females can lay eggs many times in their lifetime as long as they mate once. The number of eggs laid by females in their lifetime varies depending on the species and breeding conditions. When selecting species, you should choose species that are large, have strong reproductive capacity, and are easy to raise and manage. Currently, the most cultivated species is the American cockroach. (ii) Hatching and development. The incubation period of cockroaches is 3 to 12 weeks. The nymphs hatch from the side or back of the egg pods. In order to increase the hatching rate and prevent the nymphs from being eaten by adults, the egg pods are picked up and hatched together. That is, the egg pods laid by adults are picked up in one place and placed in an incubator with a temperature of 28 to 32°C and a relative humidity of 75% -90%. The nymphs are kept in water, food, and pollution-free. The nymphs that have just hatched from the eggs are white. They molt once a few hours later, and their body color gradually darkens. They molt 5 to 13 times in total during the maturation process before becoming adults. The length of the development time varies depending on the species and breeding conditions. American cockroaches generally lay eggs in June and July, and nymphs hatch in August. They mostly spend the winter in the form of egg pods and nymphs, and emerge in May of the next year. The nymph period is about 300 days. 3. Feeding Methods (I) Wooden box feeding and raising method. The specifications of the feeding box are: 70 cm long, 50 cm wide, and 60 cm high. The cover panel of the box is movable for operation. A small window with a length of 20 cm and a width of 15 cm is built on the front and back, and sealed with iron mesh nails for easy observation and air circulation. There is no bottom plate under the feeding box, which is convenient for cleaning and hygiene. Place the feeding box in a house with a relatively flat ground (preferably a cement floor). Inside the box, nail a square wooden strip on the front and back sides 10 cm away from the box mouth to place the wooden frame. The wooden frame is "U" shaped, and its specifications are made according to the width of the feeding box. The two sides of the frame can be placed on the two wooden strips in the front and back of the box. The wooden frame is covered with paper (the thicker the better), and then the wooden frames are stacked one by one in the feeding box (leaving an empty space at one end for feeding and watering), which becomes a residence for cockroaches. Choose healthy cockroaches as breeding insects, place them in a breeding box, put in a small amount of feed, and initially feed them with green, juicy, nutritious fruit peels, bread, steamed buns, and rice. Provide sufficient clean drinking water, and feed once every 3 days. It is better to put the feed on the top of the wooden frame in the box, or on the floor at the bottom of the box, while drinking water can only be placed on the floor at the bottom of the box. Cleaning and sanitation work should be done once every 3 days. First, gently move the feed box, clean it, and move it back to its original position, then add feed and change water. Cockroaches lay eggs mostly on the wooden frame paper, and the larvae will hatch after more than a month of incubation. (ii) Clay pot breeding method. Choose a clay pot of appropriate size depending on the number of cockroaches to be raised, and place a roll of old newspaper or kraft paper (cement bag paper) in the pot for the cockroaches to inhabit. Cover the mouth of the pot with a wooden board, or preferably a wire mesh. Place drinking water and feed in a fixed position so that the cockroaches can form a conditioned reflex and regularly go to a fixed position to eat. It is best to use a porcelain basin to put the feed in the pot, so that the leftover food will not fall to the bottom of the pot, reducing the difficulty of cleaning. The rest of the breeding and management measures are basically the same as those for breeding in wooden boxes. (III) Greenhouse breeding. Use black plastic sheeting to build a greenhouse with screens at both ends for ventilation. In winter, double-layer plastic film can be used for insulation or heating by fire or electric heating. Leave a walkway in the center of the greenhouse. Put a feed trough and a water trough. To prevent cockroaches from falling into the water and drowning, put a sponge in the water trough. Put some soft materials with gaps or foam boards for packaging eggs on both sides of the greenhouse, or you can put wooden breeding boxes. This method is suitable for large-scale breeding, with low investment and low cost, but it is not easy to catch adult insects. 4. Feed Preparation Bee cockroaches are not very demanding on feed, and they are generally fed whatever is available. The feed formula introduced below is used to improve the breeding efficiency of cockroaches. Formula 1: corn meal 90%, salt 0.5%, stone powder 0.5%, fish meal 5%, lard 2%, brown sugar 2%. Formula 2: Corn meal 75%, wheat flour 15%, dry yeast 2%, bean cake 4%, stone powder 1%, rapeseed cake 3% Recipe 3: corn meal 70%, sugar residue 20%, dry yeast 3%, fish meal, bone meal 1%. Cockroaches don’t eat much, so don’t feed them too much each time. 5. Feeding and Management The breeding and management of cockroaches should mainly pay attention to "six guarantees and three preventions": 1. Insulation: Use greenhouse box cultivation method to maintain the temperature environment at 28~33~C throughout the year. Second, keep water: Water is more important to cockroaches than food. Cockroaches will die if they are deprived of water for 2 days during the nymph stage. Therefore, water should be kept in the tank at all times. Three-guarantee food: In order for cockroaches to grow quickly, become strong, and have strong reproductive capacity, the feed trough must not be cut off, especially at night, they must be allowed to eat enough. 4. Moisturizing: The relative humidity of the environment where cockroaches live should be above 70%. If it is too dry, spray some water. Five ways to keep quiet: keep cockroaches away from noise and avoid human disturbance. Sixth, keep it dark: the place where cockroaches are raised should be dimly lit, and they should be raised in a dark room and dark box. 1. Prevent pesticide damage: Cockroaches are very sensitive to many pesticides such as pest control spirit, trichlorfon, dichlorvos, malathion, etc. It is forbidden to use pesticides in places where bees are raised. 2. Disease prevention: Disease prevention includes preventing cockroaches from getting sick themselves and preventing cockroaches from becoming hosts for other pathogens. Pay attention to the environment and food hygiene of cockroaches. Three ways to prevent natural enemies: Rats, bats, ants, etc. all eat cockroaches. Pay attention to prevent natural enemies from invading during the breeding process. 2. Economic benefit analysis of cockroach farming?First, we need to clarify the current overview of the economic benefits of cockroach farming, secondly, we need to conduct a multi-dimensional comprehensive analysis of the main contents of the current overview of the economic benefits of cockroach farming, and finally write the analysis conclusions and conduct a comprehensive evaluation. 3. How to keep cockroaches alive?Cockroaches are very tenacious and can survive as long as there is something moist in the environment they live in. Cockroaches eat everything, including soap. They can reproduce very quickly mainly because the environment they grow in is relatively moist and the temperature is suitable. If you want to raise cockroaches, put two cockroaches together, create a damp and unclean place for them, and put anything in there for them to eat and they will survive. 4. What are the breeding techniques for water cockroaches?1. Breeding environment 1. The farm should be far away from the factory and in a pollution-free place, and the water should be clean and non-toxic. 2. The water depth must be 0.5-1 meter, and it cannot be directly exposed to the sun. There must be aquatic plants in the water and anti-fly nets must be installed on the water surface. 2. Site Construction 1. You can choose fish ponds, pools or water tanks, but make sure they are pollution-free. 2. The pool can be made of bricks with an area of about 5 square meters. The water depth is controlled at 0.5-1 meter, and 200-300 fish can be raised per square meter. 3. Seedling selection 1. You can purchase seedlings from seed supply departments with guarantees and technical guidance. 2. You can also catch water cockroach larvae in the wild during spring and summer. Insect breeding. 4. Breeding management 1. Bait (1) Water cockroaches are mainly carnivorous, but they also eat plants. Their feed mainly consists of corn flour, rice bran, and sweet fruits. (2) They can also be fed crushed snails, dead fish and shrimp, and livestock waste. 2. Feeding: Feed once a day in the evening, the feeding amount is 7-8% of body weight, and the quality and freshness of the food must be guaranteed. 3. Management (1) The breeding cycle of water cockroaches is 8 months. They are mainly fed with meat in the first 3 months and mixed feed in the last 5 months. (2) Water cockroaches do not have high requirements for water quality, but if the water is too turbid, the water needs to be changed in time. 5. How to raise sea cockroaches?1. Insulation: Use greenhouse box cultivation method to maintain the temperature environment at 28-33℃ throughout the year. 2. Water conservation: Water is more important to cockroaches than food. Cockroaches will die if they are deprived of water for 2 days during the nymph stage. Therefore, water should be kept in the tank at all times. 3. Ensure food supply: In order for cockroaches to grow quickly, become strong and have strong reproductive capacity, the feed in the trough must not be cut off, especially at night, they must be allowed to eat enough. 4. Moisturizing: The relative humidity of the environment in which cockroaches live should be above 70%. If it is too dry, spray some water. 5. Keep quiet: Keep cockroaches away from noise and avoid human disturbance. 6. Keep dark: The place where cockroaches are raised should be dimly lit, and they should be raised in a dark room and dark box. 7. Prevent pesticide damage: Cockroaches are very sensitive to many pesticides such as pest control spirit, trichlorfon, dichlorvos, malathion, etc. It is forbidden to use pesticides in places where bees are raised. 8. Disease prevention: Disease prevention includes preventing cockroaches from getting sick themselves and preventing cockroaches from becoming hosts for other pathogens. Pay attention to the environment and food hygiene of cockroaches. 9. Prevent natural enemies: Rats, bats, ants, etc. all eat cockroaches. Pay attention to prevent natural enemies from invading during the breeding process. 6. Cockroach breeding technology and site construction?1. Breeding site Cockroaches are different from other animals. It is best to breed them in a relatively closed place to prevent them from escaping. Prepare a clay pot of suitable size, put some old newspapers or kraft paper rolls at the bottom, and hang drinking water and feed on the wall of the pot with iron hooks, and then cover the mouth of the pot with iron gauze and wooden boards. 2. Environmental factors The humidity in the place where cockroaches live cannot be too low, generally it should be kept at around 70%, and they should be sprayed with water regularly to keep them moist. The temperature should not be too high, and it should be kept at around 28-33 degrees Celsius all year round. Keep away from noisy places, keep quiet, and the light should not be too strong. It is best to breed them in a dark room so that the cockroaches can grow normally. 3. Feed ratio Cockroaches are omnivorous insects with strong digestive abilities and large appetites, so it is necessary to use nutrient-rich feed to supplement their nutrients. Mix corn meal, salt, stone powder, fish meal, lard, brown sugar, rapeseed cake, etc. and put them in the feeding trough, and make sure there is water in the trough at all times for the cockroaches to drink. 4. Prevent pesticides and pests Cockroaches are very tenacious and reproduce quickly, but their resistance to agricultural pesticides such as Pesticide and DDT during the nymph stage is very low. They are prone to loss of appetite and even large-scale death. Therefore, pesticides must never be sprayed or applied near places where cockroaches are raised. 7. Why can’t cockroaches be widely bred?Because widespread breeding is difficult, the following points must be achieved: First, insulation: Use greenhouse box breeding methods to maintain a temperature environment of 28℃ to 33℃ throughout the year. Second, water conservation: Water is more important to cockroaches than food. Cockroaches will die if they are deprived of water for two days during the nymph stage. Water should be kept in the tank at all times. Three-guarantee food: In order to make cockroaches grow quickly, become strong and have strong reproductive capacity, the feed in the trough must not be cut off, especially at night they must be fed well. Fourth, we must prevent pesticide damage, disease damage, and natural enemies. In short, breeding cockroaches is not an easy task. Therefore, it cannot be widely bred. 8. Is there anyone breeding cockroaches in China? What are the prospects?Cockroaches are very hateful in life, but few people know that cockroaches can become wealth. In fact, cockroaches have good medicinal effects and high breeding value. So do you know what cockroach breeding techniques are there? What are the effects and functions? What is the medicinal value? 1. What are the cockroach breeding techniques? 1.

Cockroaches lay eggs mostly on the wooden frame paper, and the larvae will hatch after more than a month of incubation. 2. What are the effects and functions of cockroaches? 1. Cockroaches can fight cancer. The trace substances contained in their bodies can inhibit the formation and regeneration of cancer cells in the human body, and can also inhibit the growth of cancer cells. After being used as medicine, they can be used for the prevention and auxiliary treatment of human cancer. 2. Cockroaches can improve the body's immunity. Cockroaches have a significant effect on improving the heterosexual immunity of human cells and humoral immunity. It can significantly improve the body's immunity, maintain the body's physiological balance, and play an important role in delaying aging. 3. What is the medicinal value of cockroaches? 1. Cockroaches can cure boils. During normal treatment, you can remove the head, feet and outer shells of seven cockroaches, add an appropriate amount of sugar, mash them together to make a paste, and apply it around the boil, leaving the head of the boil exposed. Change the dressing once a day, and the boil will get better quickly. 2. Cockroaches can cure vomiting blood. When people vomit blood, they can remove the wings of five cockroaches, put them on the clean tiles of the brazier to dry, then grind them into fine powder, wrap one in wet rotten skin, swallow it with boiling soup, take it once a day for five consecutive times. The hemostatic effect is particularly obvious. For most patients, the symptoms of vomiting blood can completely disappear. >> View more similar articles<< Cockroach related content [Technology Garden] Cockroach: Breeding of Scythe americana Science and Technology Garden 20141117 Hey, do you sell cockroaches there?
