What kind of feed is healthier for grasshoppers?

There are many things that grasshoppers eat, such as soybeans, sheep liver, carrots, etc., the amount of food eaten by grasshoppers is very small, and when feeding grasshoppers, we must pay attention to the healthy diet of grasshoppers.

There are three main types of feed for raising grasshoppers, namely soybeans (green beans), sheep liver, carrots, and soybeans contain high plant protein, containing more than 36 grams per 100 grams, and the vitamin A content of sheep liver is very high. Carrots are nutritious, and the crude fiber contained in them has an excellent facultative effect, which is indispensable for nymphs.

Because nymphs eat a small amount, the feed should not be coated too thickly to avoid waste. The daily food should be kept fresh, freshly fed, not fed every other day, feeding should be timed, 1 time a day is OK, 2 times is better.

From the perspective of ornamentation, the grasshopper is classified according to body color, which can be divided into green grasshopper, black grasshopper, mountain green grasshopper, grass grasshopper, and heterochromatic grasshopper.

According to the classification of origin, it can be divided into two categories: the northern grasshopper and the southern grasshopper, and the northern grasshopper is better than the southern grasshopper. The northern grasshopper is divided into the Beijing grasshopper, the Hebei grasshopper, the Jin grasshopper, and the Lu grasshopper. The Beijing grasshopper is also called the swallow grasshopper.

The most famous of the swallow grasshoppers is the large mountain grasshopper of Anzigou, which is famous for producing black large iron grasshoppers.

It is mostly found in plains, farmland, peanut fields, bean fields, corn fields, vegetable fields and other crop areas.

1. Eat: Meat and vegetarian matching, mainly vegetarian, preferably carrots, each one a large amount of nails per day is enough, occasionally supplemented by bread worms.

2. Drink: You don't need to drink water, just use a wet towel to plop on the table and let him crawl, replenish water and clean the whiskers at the same time.

3. Living: The space of the grasshopper cage is narrow, which is easy to cause joint diseases, so there is more time for the grasshopper to come out for a walk.

4. Feeding the grasshoppers in winter, when it is higher than 27 to 28 degrees Celsius, the grasshoppers will begin to chirp loudly, but do not put the gourd used to raise the grasshoppers on the heating to bake, and the long-term chirping will also shorten the life of the grasshoppers.

When the ambient temperature drops below 20 degrees Celsius, around 16 degrees Celsius, the gnats stop chirping. Of course, the temperature should not be too low, and it is easy to cause the death of the gnats when it is below 0 degrees Celsius.

Extended information: Adult grasshoppers are divided into four varieties according to their color and body shape: the cyan one is called "mountain blue", which looks bright and bright like a wax product when it is not moving; The black (or dark brown) ones are called "iron gnats";

Those that resemble the color of dead grass are called "grass white"; The other pure green one is called the "green grasshopper". These adult gnats are basically carnivores, and the keeper can feed them some "bread worms" every day, and occasionally some vegetables and fruits to achieve a balanced nutrition.

Winter grasshoppers can live until around May Day of the following year, but there are many master breeders who can keep them alive until around August of the following year.
