CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to breed spiders and build a spider farm? (How to breed spiders and build a spider farm)

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. What are the general conditions for a spider’s home?

The spider breeding room should refer to the following standards: the foundation should be 10 to 20 cm above the ground, and windows should be opened 1.2 to 1.5 cm above the ground on all sides, with movable screens on top to facilitate ventilation.

A 15-20 cm deep and 25 cm wide ditch is opened on the walls inside or outside the room. The inner edge of the ditch is a gentle slope, and the outer edge is a steep slope. It is inlaid with glass and filled with water to prevent ants from invading and spiders from escaping.

The spider room can be made into a breeding box with a length of 45 cm, a width of 32 cm and a height of 30 cm using wooden boards, glass or steel frames, or it can be made into a breeding box using a plastic barrel.

The box is paved with 10-15 cm thick brick-red soil, and then a 30° slope is built on it with a height of 10 cm. A cave is built on the slope. The cave is slightly inclined and 10 cm deep, which is a size suitable for the spider's body.

In each breeding box, there is a water tray and a feeding tray. A 2 cm2 foam sponge is placed in the water tray so that the spider can absorb water.

3. 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.

4. 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.

5. How to raise the Chilean red rose spider?

This spider grows slowly, and its life span is about 12 years. The humidity of Chilean red roses should be low, about 40-60% is suitable, and the maximum should not exceed 70%. Their suitable temperature is about 25-27℃, and the temperature can be lowered by about 3-5℃ at night. Electric blankets can be used for heating in winter, and no insulation equipment is needed in summer.

Like other animals living in desert shrubs, they do not need high humidity. The method is to place a shallow and stable small dish with a moist sponge or cotton ball inside to adjust the temperature and humidity in the breeding box and also absorb the spider's excrement.

In addition, we must provide some shelter for it to hide, which can be made of tree bark/tree holes or coconut shells or clay pots. You can also arrange some small bonsai in it as you wish for easy viewing.

6. How to breed ground spiders?

1. Spiders can be raised indoors or outdoors. If they are raised on a large scale, wooden boxes or cement pools can be used.

2. If you are raising a small amount, you can use a canning bottle, glass jar, or lampshade.

3. Its diet is mixed, mainly meat, such as flies, crickets, locusts, etc. It can also be fed artificial feed, mixed with milk and egg yolk, once a week. In addition, pay attention to anti-escape measures to avoid escape
