CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How many years does it take for a cicada to grow up? (How many years does it take for a cicada to grow up?)

1. What do farmed cicada monkeys eat and how long does it take for them to grow up?

Tree root water usually takes two or three years to grow.

2. How many years will it take to produce results from cicada breeding?

It takes three years from cicada egg laying to harvesting cicada pupae. The eggs are collected in autumn, usually around the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and the larvae will hatch in about fifteen days. At this time, you can see some larvae crawling up and down on the branches. When about 20% of the larvae have hatched, they should be buried.

3. How many years does it take for a golden cicada to grow into adulthood?

The golden cicadas bred in Shandong Province refer to the large golden cicadas, which have black eyes. With the current breeding technology, the cycle is long and it takes three years for this kind of cicada to grow into a mature one.

4. How long does it take for a cicada monkey to grow up?

If we count from egg to adult cicada, the time it takes to become a cicada varies. Some take two or three years, some take five or six years, and the longest one takes seventeen years to grow from a larva to break through the soil and emerge as a cicada.

After the cicada eggs hatch and fall from the tree in the spring of the second year, they will burrow into the ground, find the roots of a tree, and survive by sucking the sap from the roots. If they cannot find the roots, they will basically die.

5. How old are the trees that can be used to grow cicadas?

You can raise cicadas after more than three years.

For breeding cicadas, choose poplar, tung, willow and various fruit trees that are more than three years old. It is not easy to breed cicadas in trees with bitter sap. The breeding density should be reasonable according to the size of the tree. The amount of seeds used for 3-4 year old trees, 5-6 year old trees, and 6-10 year old trees is different. Cicadas are not very demanding on land. Sandy soil and neutral soil are better. Pay attention to watering when the land is dry. The land for breeding cicadas should not be low-lying. Pay attention to drainage when it rains heavily.

6. How long does it take to artificially breed cicada monkeys?

The time is almost the same as that of wild cicadas. It takes five years for wild cicadas to molt from eggs to become cicadas. The difference is that the survival rate of wild cicadas is lower because they have too many natural enemies and are affected by natural disasters. However, artificially bred cicadas have no natural enemies and no natural disasters, so the growth time is the same, but the survival rate is lower in wild ones and higher in artificially bred ones.
