I see many people raising little spiders and would like to raise some. But do not know how to start raising? What do I need to prepare or do? Today we will take everyone to see that. What are the basic methods of raising spiders that need to be considered? let's get started
✅ Must-have equipment
- 1. Spider
- 2. Feeding box
- 3. Clay
- 4. Hiding places such as branches, fake caves, logs
- 5. A cup of water (if the size of the spider is from 0.5cm-4cm, it is not necessary to have a cup of water)
- 6. Face
- 7. Decorate as you like. You can put a doll in it. as appropriate
✅ How to raise after buying a spider
- 1. Bring the soil into the rearing box about 1/4 of the box or 25 percent.
- 2. Garnish with peat moss as you like to retain moisture in the soil.
- 3. bring logs, twigs to decorate Or a fake cave to decorate in the spider can have a place to hide
- 4. Put the spider inside.
- 5. Close the box. Place the spider in a sheltered, sunny window. If there are a lot of ants at home or afraid that ants will go up Put a tray of water and put water in it to prevent ants from rising.
- 6. Leave the spider to get used to the new home for at least 4-5 days, allowing him to dig the ground, make a hole and get used to the new area.
- 7. On the 6th day, try feeding the spiders using a forceps, caterpillars or crickets to prevent accidents with both the owner and the spider.
- 8. If we put food in it, the spiders won't eat. Don't panic….leave the food in the spider box for 24 hours and come back to see it again.
- 9. If the spider eats, it's no problem.
- 10. If the spider doesn't eat don't panic because it may be because he is not yet used to the place or may be molting
- 11. Give the spider water and feed by spraying water to the corner of the box 3-4 times and that's it!!
✅ Moulting spiders
- 1. The characteristic of moulting spiders is that they will lie on their stomachs as if they were dead. Therefore, the shepherd should understand. Don't go picking them up in the garbage!!!
- 2. When the spider tries to stain us….let go Let him copy don't mess with him
- 3. When spiders molt Just don't mess with him as the spiders are very weak during that time.
- 4. During that time, about 1 day after the spiders molt, we spray the corners of the box with water 3-4 times to keep the box moist.
✅ Things to worry about and watch out for
- 1. Ants
- 2. Sunlight because the spiders we raise in the box. which if the sun The heat will enter the box. and spiders from dying from baking in the heat of the sun.
- 3. Moulting spiders not a dead spider So don't throw it away.
