Reasonable control of breeding density to prevent cannibalism among centipedes:
Under conditions of excessive centipede living density or frequent disturbances, mutual cannibalism leading to death can easily occur. However, in farming conditions, with improvements in living environment and feeding conditions, such as providing sufficient fresh feed and water sources without disturbing their lives excessively, even at larger breeding densities, there will be little impact on their lives. Especially for centipedes from the same mother, as they have lived together since youth, even dozens curled up together when grown, they can still coexist harmoniously. Therefore, providing sufficient fresh feed and water sources, maintaining a quiet environment, is a necessary condition for artificial centipede breeding. Unless needed for seedling cultivation, mixing young centipedes from different breeding pools should be avoided as much as possible.
Mastering centipede dietary habits and scientifically adjusting centipede feed:
Wild centipedes are typical carnivorous insects, relatively fierce, capturing various small animals much larger than themselves using their venomous fangs. Centipedes enjoy animal-based feeds including earthworms, sowbugs, spiders, dragonflies, ground beetles, mantises, locusts, crickets, oil beetles, mole crickets, cicadas, reverse-moving bugs, wasps, various fish, frogs, geckos, mutton, beef, rabbit meat, eggs, chicken, sparrow meat, snake meat, blowflies, millipedes, silkworm pupae, goat milk, cow milk, etc. In cases where animal-based feed supply is insufficient, plant-based feeds are also consumed. To reduce breeding costs and expand feed sources, Xi Wang Medicinal Animal Breeding Farm places special emphasis on the development and utilization of plant-based feeds and has developed several mixed feed formulas highly favored by centipedes, which include wheat flour, rice flour, millet flour, cornmeal, sorghum flour, bran, rice husks, corn husks, black bean skins, soybean cake, peanut cake, rapeseed cake (buried pit detoxification treatment), cottonseed cake (usage not exceeding 10%, drug detoxified before use), Sophora leaf powder, soybean skin, etc.
Although centipedes have a wide and varied diet, they require fresh food and do not eat rotten food. Therefore, in artificial breeding, to facilitate feed management and ensure the freshness and cleanliness of the feed, the feed should not be directly scattered in the centipede activity area or resting stacks to avoid moldy leftover feed causing fungal diseases to spread. Instead, the feed and drinking water should be placed in dedicated feeding trays or water trays. Feeding trays and water trays must be regularly and fixedly placed, without arbitrarily changing the time and location. Generally, feeding trays should be delivered to the placement site before sunset in the afternoon and removed early the next morning for cleaning and reuse.
Centipedes have a large single feeding capacity and strong hunger resistance. When hungry, they can consume up to 1/5 to 3/5 of their body weight in one meal. After eating to fullness, they won't die of starvation even if no food is given for ten days to half a month, but centipedes cannot withstand thirst and need water daily. Therefore, water containers must be placed in the breeding grounds, and water must be changed regularly to maintain fresh and clean drinking water.
Mastering centipede egg-laying patterns and creating the optimal hatching environment:
At the end of spring and beginning of summer each year, it is the egg-laying period for centipedes. Each female centipede generally lays between 20 to 60 eggs, mostly 40 to 50 eggs, with fewer laying less than 10 eggs. Before laying eggs, the centipede's abdomen tightly presses against the ground, digging a shallow hole by itself. During egg-laying, the centipede's body curves into an "S" shape, producing eggs one by one in a string inside the shallow hole it dug itself. Under undisturbed external conditions, egg-laying takes about 2 to 3 hours. After laying, the centipede immediately turns sideways, using its legs to gather the eggs into a cluster, holding them in its "arms" to incubate. The eggs laid by centipedes are elliptical in shape, varying in size, with a general diameter of about 3 to 3.5 mm, yellowish-white in color, semi-transparent, and the egg membrane is elastic.
The incubation period for centipede eggs is relatively long, usually taking 43 to 50 days. During the hatching process, both the external morphology and internal structure change gradually as the embryo develops continuously. After about a month, the initial larval form appears within the egg, measuring approximately 1.2 cm in length, visible as the larvae move within the egg membrane; after 35 to 40 days, the larva measures about 1.5 cm in length, able to crawl up and down but still unable to leave the mother's body; after 43 to 45 days, the larva measures about 2.5 cm in length, able to leave the mother's body and search for food independently. During the incubation period, the mother does not eat, drink, or leave the nest for activities. Therefore, throughout the entire incubation period, the humidity around the centipedes should remain relatively stable. Excessive moisture or dryness will affect the hatching of centipedes, and may even cause the mother to eat the eggs or young centipedes, affecting the hatching rate and survival rate of the larvae. For breeders with less experience, before the centipedes make nests to lay eggs, pots of wet-loving plants such as spider plants can be placed on top of the centipede breeding stacks. Every time the plants are watered, the water seeps down through the pot. As long as the plants remain healthy, the humidity of the stack will be basically stable. Once the female centipede finds a suitable place on the stack to make a nest, you must ensure that the plants remain healthy. If the leaves of the plants start to wither, water them promptly. If the roots rot, indicating excessive moisture, stop watering.
During the egg-laying or incubation period, if the centipede is disturbed by external factors, it will stop laying eggs and eat all the eggs already laid or those being incubated. This is known as the centipede's "protective" reaction. After eating the eggs, centipedes often re-lay and incubate eggs. However, this significantly delays the egg-laying and incubation periods, reduces the number of eggs laid, lowers the hatching rate, and affects the yield and quality of centipedes. Therefore, during artificial centipede breeding, the surrounding environment should be kept quiet during the egg-laying and incubation periods of centipedes. Disturbances should be avoided, which is a matter that must be paid attention to in breeding management.
