How do you feed domestic crickets with water? How do crickets drink water?

The watering can is sprayed on the blades of grass and placed in the cricket cage.

Don't use water, use watery plants on the go, if the crickets eat plants with water, they die easily.

Crickets drink water, especially fighting crickets; There are two ways to feed crickets, one is to feed dry food, which requires a basin of water, and the other is to feed paste, which does not need to be bowled with water. Water basins are sold in pet markets, and if you don't have them, you can replace them with drink bottle caps. Crickets are an ancient insect that is at least 100 million years old and is still the object of fighting in ancient and modern times.

Crickets don't drink water, and many insects don't drink water! They eat the leaves and stems of plants with liquid to replenish water.

1. What are the foods of crickets?

Crickets are omnivorous insects, they can eat the leaves, stems, flowers, etc. of various plants in Songshan, and they can also eat insect corpses. Common cricket foods include vegetables and fruits such as pothos, pineapples, cucumbers, and some animal foods such as small fish and meat.

For cricket pets, which have become more and more popular in recent years, it is also a good choice to choose commercially available cricket feed. It is best to choose a nutritious, active and passive balanced feed, and add some water sail fruits and vegetables in moderation, which can keep the crickets in a healthy physical condition.

2. The feeding details that crickets need to pay attention to

Crickets are a sensitive and vulnerable insect, and their feeding also requires attention to some details.

Breeding environment: Crickets cannot be exposed to sunlight and need to be kept in a dark environment. The rearing box should have good ventilation and moisture retention, and should not be placed in a wet or cold place.

Feeding temperature: The feeding temperature of crickets is suitable for about 25 -30, and it is not suitable for more than 30 or lower than 20.

Drinking water: Crickets do not need to drink a lot of water, but the source of drinking water should be kept clean, a drip can be used, and water should not be poured directly on food.

3. How to control the number of crickets

1.Control food: Limiting the amount of food that crickets can eat to control their reproduction rate.

2.Adding natural predators of the same kind: e.g. spiders, ants, etc., like natural enemies of crickets (but not silkworm moths, mosquitoes are a coexistence nightmare for ordinary crickets), will reduce the number of crickets and their lifespan.

3.Adjust the feeding environment: when it is too cold in winter, the reproduction of crickets slows down, and when it is too hot in summer, it will also reduce the reproductive function of crickets.

4. How to observe the health status of crickets

By observing the health status of crickets, we can detect their diseases and abnormalities in time and avoid cricket death.

1.Observe behavior: In general, crickets are lively, if you find that crickets do not move or eat for a long time, they may be sick.

2.Observation of appearance: white spots on the crickets, deformed and accompanied by tears, caused by cricket pests (parasites).

3.Chemical treatment: The crickets can be put into a closed container to add some formaldehyde and other chemical agents, and after the agent takes effect, take it out and flush it in the toilet to prevent environmental protection problems affecting the pet environment.

What do crickets eat and how to raise them

Crickets living in the wild generally feed on young shoots, young leaves and roots, and in addition to a variety of fresh vegetables and fruits, the keeper will also choose some food and mix it to make a rich and nutritious meal in proportion.

Regular and quantitative feeding every day promotes crickets to grow healthier and braver.

The feeding temperature of crickets is about 25. When the temperature is over the drought, spray some water in the morning and evening to keep the surface temperature in the cage at 75-80%. Rainy days do not affect the normal life of crickets, but they should be covered on the feeding board, and green fodder can be put less or no more.

Water in the cage for 1 hour can cause the death of crickets, and should be drained in time. The daily light time is 12 hours, the nymph development period can be shortened, and when the natural light time is insufficient, light should be added.

First of all, set up the breeding cage and control the temperature of the breeding room at about 20 -25. Feeding is generally concentrated on the eve of nightfall, and green fodder such as vegetable leaves can be placed during the day to transition. Finally, do a good job in breeding management.

Crickets generally feed on young shoots, young leaves and roots.

Captive-bred crickets can be fed:

1. Feed high-protein crickets to grow better

2. Edamame soybeans and soybeans are better

3. If you want to raise it better, feed some fish, loaches, shrimp and the like

4. The simplest is to feed fish feed, which should have a fishy smell

Crickets have just been caught in pots and raised, because their food is very miscellaneous when they are in the wild, and now they are transferred to artificial feeding, and they need to be "cleansed". It's the same as people having to take a laxative for a day or two before entering the hospital in the winter. Its purpose is to not only expel the soil impurities in the body, but also to remove the heat in the stomach, which is conducive to the future rest and intensive recuperation.

The general practice of "clearing" is to first feed raw edamame beans that have been mashed into a puree, or boiled and shelled mung beans, or soaked green vegetable leaves. After feeding these foods for a day or two, you can see that the feces excreted by them gradually change from muddy and water to pure food feces, and then you can change the normal food.

In early autumn, crickets are mainly fed cereals, and occasionally some fruits can be fed. At this stage, feeding is based on the worm being full, and there is no need to worry about anything else. The food fed must be soft, not stiff rice, and no overnight food can be fed.

Every few days, some cooked river shrimp meat, chestnut meat, soybeans, and buttery foods such as chicken, duck, and pork are always fed to prevent anorexia and oiliness of insects in the future. In the food of crickets, do not stain some wine, oil, salt, sauce and other items, if crickets come into contact with these items, its harm is great. The placement of food in the air, must be regular and quantitative, the number of food, rather than more to eat, not less to eat, the general insect in the early autumn season, the large amount of food can eat three or four porridge rice size food every day, if the food is placed more, it will no longer eat after eating, will automatically do quantitative.
