CATDOLL : CATDOLL: What species are good for beginner spider breeders?

1. Which pet spiders are suitable for beginners to raise?

Mexican Red Knee.

It has a large body and beautiful patterns, and a gentle temper (mainly kicking hair). The adult is about 16. Of course, this variety is also a slow-growing variety, but it is very durable. It is one of the first choices for novices. Most of them are juveniles on the market, and players can buy them from online stores.

2. I'm a novice and want to get started with spiders. Which ones are easy to get started with and raise?

I recommend Honduras curly, red tail, white and red tail, and golden straight. The curly and golden straight that I have raised are more upright, lively and easy to raise. If you buy a young spider, you must pay attention to the humidity and add water to the soil regularly, especially when it is about to molt.

3. What spiders are suitable for beginners to raise? That is, easy to get started and pretty?

There are currently three main types of spiders, namely hunting types, web-building types and burrowing types. The first type will crawl around hunting, the second type will build a web and then wait for prey to come to them, and most of the third type of spiders can be kept as pets.

In their daily life, they hide in sand piles or caves, and then weave webs outside the caves. The webs themselves are not sticky, and are purely used to sense the size of prey and catch them. Spiders are very territorial and should be kept alone. In fact, they only need to be fed one or two meals a month, and their main food can be insects such as crickets and grasshoppers.

The breeding environment is also very simple. Just put a wet sponge in the breeding box to replenish it with water, and you can keep the spider alive. The general lifespan of a spider can be about seven years.

Female spiders are vicious. To survive, they often provoke male spiders to mate with them, then kill them. When their bellies are full and they can no longer hunt, they will slowly enjoy their husband's corpse! The more popular spider species include: the fire rose, which is native to the forests of South America. They are covered in fur and usually like to hide in mud holes, eating mainly insects.

It is highly adaptable and is by far the most popular spider.

There are also several species of spiders that originate from the Amazon rainforest, such as the bird-eating spider, the Colombian red-legged spider, and the Chilean tiger spider. They are low in toxicity and weak in attack power, have strong adaptability, and are easy to keep, so they are very popular in the market. First: Red Rose (price is 80-180) Mexican Red Knee (price 120-200) Thai Metallic Blue (price 120-200+)

4. A novice wants to buy a spider, what do you recommend?

I personally recommend Curly. Curly is also the first spider I have raised. It is really docile in character. The key is that it grows fast and hunts fiercely. It doesn't have too many requirements for the environment. It just needs to be kept warm and moisturized. I think it is a standard for novices.

5. I want the names, colors, sizes, and difficulty of raising pet spiders that I can get my hands on... Please tell me as much as you can.

It is not recommended to start raising spiders.

6. What kind of spider is easy to handle and not afraid of the cold winter and is suitable for beginners to raise?

Here are a few that are not too small and are more suitable for beginners.

1. Brazilian White Knee: A classic entry-level tarantula, it grows relatively fast, with an adult leg span of about 21CM, and is somewhat ferocious.

2. Red Rose and Honduras Curly are also classic novice spiders, but they grow more slowly but are very docile.

3. The Brazilian Solomon's Tarantula has a good growth rate, slightly slower than the White Knee Tarantula. The adult size is about 22CM and it is a bit fierce.

4. Brazilian Giant Golden Straight is a classic variety, but its growth rate is not very fast. The adult is about 21CM and is relatively docile.

7. I want to raise a spider, but I’m a novice and this is my first time raising a pet. I don’t know which breed is good?

From this point of view, the Fire Rose should be more suitable for you. It is said that it is harder to kill the Fire Rose than to keep it alive. However, the appearance of spiders in different shops is also different. In fact, they are not as gorgeous as in the photos.

Some people say that Brazilian black velvet is a better choice than Fire Rose, but the price is much higher than Fire Rose.

8. What kind of spiders are suitable for beginners and are easy to raise?

First of all, if you want to raise a spider, you must prepare the necessary tools in advance. Find a suitable transparent box with a lid and lock the spider inside to prevent it from escaping. Then, in order to avoid being bitten by the spider, you can also prepare a pair of tweezers for daily feeding. In addition, a watering bottle is also necessary.

Secondly, different spiders have different requirements for air humidity and temperature. Keepers can adjust according to the species of spiders they catch. Generally speaking, the humidity should not exceed 70%. The temperature that spiders adapt to is generally around 25℃, so remember to keep them warm in winter.

9. I am a novice spider breeder. Which type of tarantula is the most suitable for a novice? And is it docile? Thank you very much.

Arboreal species are not recommended as they are fast and highly poisonous, and some may even jump slightly and scurry out of the box in the blink of an eye.

It is not recommended for burrowing species as they are buried in the soil for long periods of time and are rarely seen. They have a strong sense of territory and will not tolerate being disturbed by living creatures.

Most of the terrestrial species are good and are recommended for beginners in growing roses.

However, most terrestrial species grow slowly and like to kick their fur. Compared to the Brazilian white-knee, they grow faster, but the white-knee's kicking fur is very uncomfortable.

I like the large Solomon.

In fact, they are quite beautiful and domineering when they grow up.

The Mexican Red Knee is docile and good-looking, but grows very slowly. Relatively speaking, the female spiders of this slow-growing species have a particularly long lifespan, and generally both the large and small spiders will have obvious body color characteristics that look very good.

Honduran curly hair and golden straight hair are also good.

All the fishes with "Babu" in their names are ferocious; those with "Gorgeous Rainforest" in their names are extremely fast and may bite you several times at a time, and the toxicity will take you a week to recover; most of the "Pink Toes" series are very beautiful, but they are prone to sudden death without any signs, so it is recommended that you master the breeding techniques before purchasing them.

10. Is the Chilean Fire Rose Spider suitable for beginners to raise?

Suitable for beginners.

The Chilean Fire Rose is a type of tarantula. It has low requirements for the environment, strong adaptability, a docile temperament, and is easy to raise. It is a relatively easy breed and is very suitable for novices.

Fire Rose moves slowly and has a gentle personality. It is one of the few species that can be handled and rarely bites people. However, Fire Rose grows slowly, taking three to five years to reach adulthood and has no obvious signs of molting.
