CATDOLL : CATDOLL: What to pay attention to when breeding spiders (What to pay attention to and what to avoid when breeding spiders)

1. How to raise spiders so that they will get close to you?

1. Prepare a ventilated breeding box, put coconut soil, sterile soil and other substrates in it, and place hiding holes and fake trees according to the habits of the spider species. Spiders need to hunt by themselves. There is no need to put too many unnecessary objects in the breeding box.

2. Keep the breeding temperature between 17-25℃ and the humidity at around 65%. You can put a small water cup with some cotton in it.

3. Mainly feed crickets, locusts, moths, etc. The remaining food residues should be cleaned up and the coconut soil should be replaced regularly. This substrate is easy to breed bacteria, and if it is not replaced in time, it will easily cause the spider to become sick or even die.

2. What should you pay attention to when raising spiders?

1. The breeding temperature should be around 25℃. The temperature difference between day and night should not be too large. Pay attention to cooling down in summer to prevent heatstroke, and pay attention to heating up in winter to keep warm.

2. Adjust the humidity according to the species of spider, generally keep it at 65-70%. If it is too low, the spider may become dehydrated.

3. A good ventilation environment can make spiders strong, reduce diseases, and help them safely pass through each molting.

4. Avoid direct sunlight.

5. The spider's molting is controlled by the secretory hormones of the secretory cells in the ganglia of the brain and the abdominal ganglia. There are usually signs. First, the spider's activity decreases before molting, and it looks for a quiet place, does not eat or move, enters a semi-dormant state, and other metabolic activities are in a weak state; second, the body shape, the abdomen is obviously enlarged, the skin is rough, the body segments are clear, and there are cracks.

3. What are the varieties of pet spiders?

Common pet spiders include the Intellectual Red Rose, Intellectual Fire Rose, Mexican Red Knees, Mexican Fire Legs, Honduras Curly, Guatemalan Red Tail, etc.

Some spiders are docile, but some are poisonous and aggressive. We should try not to handle them directly during daily breeding. It is best to use tools to touch them.

2. How to keep a 0.5 to 1 cm pet spider?

1. Temperature

It is best to control it between 25-30 to ensure the spider's healthy life.

Spiders prefer temperatures between 22 and 30 degrees. If conditions are good, it is best to maintain 26 to 28 degrees, but avoid direct sunlight, which is the best breeding temperature. The temperature difference between day and night should not be too large. Pay attention to cooling down in summer to prevent heatstroke, and pay attention to heating in winter to keep warm. You can use air conditioning and heating to heat up, or you can buy a heating pad specially designed for reptiles to heat up.

2. Food

Spiders are mainly raised by feeding small animals, such as mealworms, small earthworms, etc. If conditions permit, artificial compound feed can also be used.

3. Humidity

The humidity should be kept at around 65 degrees. Low humidity can easily cause spiders to become dehydrated, and eventually die of weight loss. 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 bowl for the larvae to drink water, usually add 1-2 drops 1-2 times a week. If you don't use a water bowl, it's okay to keep the coconut soil at a certain humidity, the spiders will absorb the moisture in the coconut soil by themselves.

4. Ventilation

A good ventilation environment can make young spiders strong, reduce diseases, and safely pass each molting. Air pollution, humidity, and heat are the main causes of death for spiders.

5. Lighting

First of all, there should be sufficient light. If conditions permit, you can take it outside to see the light. (Spiders don't like light, so when they see the light, they should be kept away from the sun to ensure their safety). The windows should be opened frequently, but avoid direct sunlight.

6. Molting

Molting is a relatively important stage, so many things need to be paid attention to. Molting can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months. When molting, the spider will lay a web on the ground and lie on it with its legs up. Do not disturb it at this time, and do not move it or throw it away because you think it is dead. The spider will stop eating a few days before molting, and start feeding it 5 days after molting.

7. Getting Started

Put your left hand in front of it, and use your right hand to push its buttocks, and it will climb onto your hand, and push its buttocks off when it comes down (but it is not recommended to climb onto your hand, as spiders are more of an ornamental pet)

8. Environment

Do not spray insecticides, cockroach medicinal mosquito coils, mothballs, vinegar floral water, perfume, air fresheners, sandalwood, formaldehyde, and other anti-mite drugs in the room where spiders are kept. These will kill your spiders!

3. How to raise spiders?

Spiders can be raised indoors or outdoors. For large-scale breeding, wooden boxes and cement pools can be used. For small-scale breeding, canned bottles, glass jars, and lampshades can be used. They have a mixed diet and mainly feed on meat, such as flies, crickets, locusts, etc. They can also be fed artificial feed, mixed with milk and egg yolk, once a week. In addition, take anti-escape measures to prevent them from escaping.

4. How to raise common spiders?

Prepare a ventilated breeding box, put coconut soil, sterile soil and other base 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.

5. 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.

6. What are the precautions and taboos for novices in raising spiders?

1 Precautions: Before raising spiders, you should understand their habits and nutritional needs, provide them with appropriate feed and water, clean their living environment regularly, and prevent them from being infected with germs. 2 Taboos: Do not touch spiders at will, do not expose them to direct sunlight, do not feed them too much raw meat and animal offal, and do not place different types of spiders in the same container. 3 Content extension: Raising spiders can cultivate people's observation ability and sense of responsibility, but they also need to pay attention to safety and hygiene issues. In the process of raising spiders, you can learn a lot about animals and ecology, and you can also understand the differences and characteristics between different types of spiders.

7. Do you need sunlight to raise spiders?

Don't put it in the sun. Spiders don't like the sun. The sun will burn them or even kill them. After placing it, don't worry about it. Check it again after 3-5 days and then feed it. Be sure to let the spider rest and don't touch it right away.

Also, spiders are territorial, so if you want to keep more than one, you must keep them separately and not put them in the same box.

8. What should you pay attention to when raising spiders?

1. 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.

9. 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.
