How to raise reptile monkeys

Collect climbing monkey eggs: choose sunny weather, find the branches of female climbing monkeys after laying eggs, and then make seedlings to hatch cicada larvae. Choose the site: choose the poplar and willow forest, or the beach where the old apple orchard and wicker are overgrown, or you can choose the place where there are more reptiles last year as the site for burying egg branches. Burying egg branches: dig trenches about 3 cm deep, then bury egg branches to cover soil 3 cm and then gently firm. Aquaculture management: after the egg branches are buried in the ground, they should be drained and waterlogged in time when it rains.

First, collect climbing monkey eggs

1. On sunny days, female reptiles generally concentrate on poplar and willow trees with luxuriant branches, or apple trees that year, especially like to lay eggs on white willow. After spawning, the branches begin to wither on their own about 3-10 days after spawning. Careful observation shows that there are granular eggs.

2. Then attach to the withered branches, pick the withered branches by hand, and make seedlings to hatch small cicada larvae. There are about 50-100 climbing monkey eggs on one egg branch, and generally 2-3 egg branches can be buried per square meter.

Second, choose the site

The site for burying egg branches needs to be in the willow forest, or the old apple orchard and wicker beach, and the soil quality needs to be unconsolidated, non-desertified, ant-free and hamster-free, which is suitable in the loose and humid loam zone. You can also choose the place where there are more climbing monkeys last year, as the site for burying egg branches.

Third, burying egg branches

The main results are as follows: 1. You can choose to dig the white wicker seedlings by the river or in the moist land, and then plant them in the loose loam land. The suitable plant spacing is 35cm, the row spacing is 90cm, and about 2003 white wicker seedlings can be planted per mu. Between the two rows of the white wicker seedlings, dig a deep trench with 3cm, and then bury the egg branches covered with soil 3cm.

2. You can also choose to be in the willow forest, or in the old apple orchard, you need to be 2 meters away from the main tree trunk, then dig a trench deep with 3cm, bury the egg branches, and cover the soil gently and firmly.

Aquaculture management

After the egg branch is buried in the ground, it should be drained and waterlogged in time when it rains, and the white willow, or poplar and willow and apple trees should be watered in the early weather, and appropriate amount of farm manure can be applied while watering, which is helpful to promote the egg branch to flourish, provide sufficient nutrition to the reptile monkey larva, make it grow vigorously, and increase its yield. During breeding, it is necessary to prevent human and animal trampling, as well as ants and other natural enemies.

V. harvesting and processing

1. After 2-3 years of burying egg branches, reptiles will gradually grow and mature. The harvest season is usually in the Summer Solstice every year. If there is rain and the reptiles grow fat and strong, they will begin to drill out of the ground at 4-5 o'clock in the morning, or after the rain has cleared up, and then look for wicker or tree trunks to crawl up.

2. After waiting for 2-4 hours, the reptile will begin to molt its skin and turn into a cicada (cicada). According to this characteristic of the reptile, usually after the Summer Solstice every year, there is no rain and drought during the period, so the breeding site can be soaked in time, and the reptile can be induced to dig into the soil. Before the reptile emerges, or before the reptile matures, it can tie up a circle of smooth plastic film on the trunk of the 30cm off the ground, so that the reptile cannot continue to crawl to the trunk. To facilitate timely harvesting.
