CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Spider breeding flow (spider breeding technology)

1. How to breed southern spiders?

1. To raise hunting spiders, you can use large-mouthed cans, wide-mouthed bottles, and specimen bottles. However, the mouth of the bottle should be sealed with double gauze and some zigzag cardboard or small firewood stalks inside for the spiders to climb and hide.

2. Three-dimensional cage culture method for raising web-weaving spiders:

(1) The spider cage is made of white plastic window screen, 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 on one end of the circular hole to serve as an operation 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 in place.

(2) The spider cage frame can be made of wood or thin steel bars welded by electric welding. The size should be suitable for the cage. In order to save floor space, several layers are usually overlapped, as long as it is easy to operate. The outer height of the cage frame is 2 meters, 1 meter long, and 20 centimeters wide. There are 9 layers in total, with 5 cages on each layer. The lower legs are 10 to 20 centimeters high. A 20-square-meter space can raise 1,000 spiders.

3. To raise cave-dwelling spiders, you can use the pond method, that is, build a pond with a length, width and height of 50 cm with bricks, fill it with soil to 1/2 of the height, make a cave manually, seal the top with iron wire and leave a small door for observation and feeding. This method is suitable for raising bird spiders, cave-dwelling wolf spiders, etc.

Breeding method: Single spider breeding means keeping one spider in a container.

Due to different breeding purposes and tools, it can be divided into cage breeding and bottle breeding, and some can be directly placed on potted crops.

Spider breeding is to raise multiple spiders in a larger breeding container. In order to prevent spiders from killing each other, straw, rice straw, and small branches should be added to the breeding container to reduce contact between spiders and enable them to build nests and defend themselves. In this breeding method, spiders of the same species and size should be placed in order to avoid the strong preying on the weak.

Feed and feeding Spiders have a mixed diet, but they are mainly fed with meat, such as locusts, crickets, butterflies, flies, mealworms, etc. are all high-quality feed. For large-scale breeding, it is best to set up a small insect farm. Artificial feeds include milk, egg yolk, etc., which can be prepared and fed once a week.

2. 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.

3. How to breed Spider-Man?

The breeding space does not need to be too large, because spiders themselves are not big and they don’t like bright places, so it is best to choose a dark place to breed spiders.

1. Sufficient preparation. The soil for making the cave must not be polluted, and the cave should be as large as possible; when breeding in a barrel, the height of the cave cannot exceed two-thirds of the barrel height, and the area of ​​the cave occupies about one-half of the barrel area. In addition, food for the spiders must be prepared.

2. Make sure you have good seed sources. A good seed source is the beginning of raising spiders well. Only with good seeds can we lay a good foundation for future breeding. Therefore, you must introduce seeds from a regular farm with a large scale and a good reputation to ensure the safety of the species.

3. Never let the water run short. Spiders have a special way of drinking water. You should put a sponge in clean water, soak it in water, pick it up with chopsticks and put it in a small dish. Well water is the best for feeding spiders. If you use tap water, it is best to let it sit for 1 hour before using it. The drinking vessel used must be clean.

4. Spider breeding cycle?

1. Recovery period

The recovery period is generally from the "Qingzhe" to the "Qingming" season, which takes about 40 days. During this period, the dormant spiders begin to wake up, so it is called the recovery period. After the "Qingzhe", the temperature begins to rise gradually, and the spiders begin to wriggle after waking up from their dormant state and come out of hibernation. Due to the unstable climate in early spring, the temperature difference is large, especially the temperature difference between day and night. At this time, the activity time and range of spiders are still relatively small, and the digestive function has not yet fully recovered. Therefore, most of the nutrition still comes from the nutrients stored during the filling and shedding period, and their growth and development are still in a period of cessation.

2. Growth and development period

The growth and development period is generally from the Qingming Festival to the White Dew Festival, about 150-160 days. This period is the best period for the spider's nutritional growth and reproductive growth in a year, so it is called the growth and development period. After the Qingming Festival, the temperature began to rise steadily, the temperature difference between day and night decreased, and at the same time, most of the spider's food, insects, also recovered, which provided a sufficient food source for the spider's growth and development. As the temperature gradually rises, the range of activities increases, and the amount of food increases, the spider enters the peak period of nutritional growth and reproductive growth. During this period, in addition to completing growth and development, mature male and female spiders also mate to reproduce.

3. Fill in the period

The filling and shedding period is generally between the "Autumnal Equinox" and "Frost Descent", about 45-50 days. This period is the stage for wild spiders to store nutrients and dehydrate their bodies before stinging, so it is called the filling and shedding period. After the "Autumnal Equinox", the weather begins to turn cooler and the temperature gradually drops. In order to ensure sufficient nutrition during the hibernation period, spiders stop growing and developing, and begin to eat more food, so as to maximize food intake and digestion, and store the obtained fat nutrients. At the same time, different methods are used to concentrate the fluid in the body to complete the process of body dehydration.

4. Dormant period

The dormancy period is generally from the beginning of winter to the rainy season, about 120-130 days. During this period, the growth and development of spiders completely stop, and the body is in a curled-up dormant state, so it is called the dormancy period. After the beginning of winter, the weather gradually turns colder, and the temperature does not rise or fall. The spider's range of activities gradually decreases, and it basically stops eating, thus entering a hibernation state. During the entire dormant period, the spider's metabolism is very slow, only maintaining life needs, slowly digesting the stored energy, and growth and development are in a state of cessation.

5. What are the breeding methods and precautions for Spider-Man?

Some pet spiders are difficult to keep. Since many pet spiders are tropical species, the temperature must be kept at around 25 degrees when they are kept. It is best not to be lower than 20 degrees. There is no big problem with a higher temperature, but a low temperature will affect its eating. If it is a few degrees or below zero, it will be life-threatening.

2. The best place to raise spiders is a wooden box. At the same time, it is best to choose a suitable box according to the size of the spider. At the same time, you should also choose according to the type of spider, so that they will feel safer when living in it.

3. Moreover, spiders come from different places and have certain requirements for temperature and humidity. They can be said to be very delicate pets. If they are in relatively dry areas, young spiders may die of dehydration, and even large ones will shed their skin. If it is too humid, they will get sick, so you need to pay attention.

4. After the spider moves to a new environment, it is easy to lack a sense of security. At this time, the spider will be aggressive or will not eat. You can put the spider in a breeding box away from light for two or three days, and it will not be nervous and will not eat.

5. Web-making is the nature of spiders and also their means of hunting. It can be said that the nest they weave with spider webs is their home. So if you keep such spiders, you must be careful not to clean the spider webs frequently, otherwise you will be easily bitten, and it is also easy to cause the spider's nerves to be sensitive and die.

6. Coconut soil is the bedding material for pet spiders. Although it is usually sterile when purchased, it is easy to breed bacteria because it needs to be soaked before use. Therefore, the coconut soil must be cleaned regularly, otherwise it will easily cause the spider to become sick or even die.

7. Because most pet spiders are poisonous, you must not handle them when raising them. Although a bite will not threaten your life, the pain is unbearable. So you must be careful during the raising process and try to wear gloves.

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

Spiders are mainly fed with small animals, such as mealworms, small earthworms, etc., and artificial feed can be used if conditions permit. Humidity should be kept at around 65. Low humidity can easily cause spiders to dehydrate, and eventually become emaciated and die. If the humidity is too high, spiders are prone to edema and death. If the humidity is too high, spiders are prone to edema and spot mold. Use a small water basin for the larvae to drink water, usually 1-2 drops each time 1-2 times a week. It is also okay if you don't use a water basin. Keep the coconut soil at a certain humidity, and the spiders will absorb the moisture in the coconut soil by themselves.

7. How to raise wild spiders?

To raise spiders, prepare a ventilated breeding box, put coconut soil, sterile soil and other substrate materials in it, and place hiding holes and fake trees according to the habits of the spider species; keep the breeding temperature between 17-25℃, and the humidity at around 65%; mainly feed crickets, locusts, moths, etc.; clean up leftover food residues, replace the coconut soil regularly, and the temperature difference between day and night should not be too large; pay attention to cooling down and preventing heatstroke in summer, and pay attention to warming and keeping warm in winter.
