The young man in Wuhan moved the spider centipede scorpion to the Internet to sell tens of thousands of yuan a month.

In the past, spiders, centipedes, scorpions and other reptiles have always been regarded as dangerous poisons, but now they have become the new darling of fashion. And some enthusiasts see the business opportunities, began to invest in such alternative industries, as the current market competition is not fierce, some early sellers have made money.

Non-toxic red spiders, red dragon centipedes, green iguanas. Yesterday, the reporter saw a large number of creepy "pets" in a small warehouse near Parrot Island. Wuhan Xiao Gao said that the current sales volume is good, and the sales network has spread all over many cities across the country, with monthly sales of 50,000 to 60,000 yuan.

Xiao Gao told reporters that non-toxic hairy spiders are now the most popular, selling 40-50 spiders every month, with prices ranging from 100 yuan to 300 yuan. In early 2009, Xiao Gao's online sales had stabilized at around 30,000 yuan, so he rented a small warehouse of 30 square meters as a "base" for 600 yuan a month near Parrot Island to concentrate on online transactions.

Xiao Gao said that such pets mainly eat crickets, barley worms and other small insects, and these "grains" are also sold by themselves. His clients are mainly "crawlers", and most of these people are young people who are more "homely". There are "enthusiasts" who can even buy more than a dozen such "pets".

In addition, this kind of reptile pets have high requirements for temperature and humidity, and their living habits are also very different. For example, spiders are thirsty and centipedes are not thirsty. Businesses must learn in advance if they want to breed themselves, otherwise they are very likely to fail. It's better to buy goods directly from other places.

The Wuhan Department of Industry and Commerce reminded that at present, some centipede scorpion farming in the name of agriculture and biotechnology have joined fraudulent companies, exaggerating "earn thousands a day and earn 10,000 yuan a month", making franchisees feel that they have found a way to make money. In addition, once non-local franchisees are found to have been cheated, it is also troublesome to safeguard their rights, so first-time entrepreneurs should beware.
