In the summer, I'm going to catch gray grasshoppers and get their eggs. I need EVERYTHING about their contents (eggs). yes.gif

What region? Catch a fat female in July, put her in a cage made of tulle, stretched on a plastic box for insects(without folds), put soil in it and put a small box with sand in the depth of the egg-laying area, fields of water and she will put them there within a week. Or find eggs in October and November in krotavins or sandy outcrops on the turf, where gray or albifrons actually live. Put it in a jar of sand and pull it out on the balcony. They will be ready to hatch by February.

Thank you, though I probably didn't exactly put the question.
I mean, not how to get them, but how to grow them (wintering).

This is a complex process. To begin with, you need a good breathable garden and a cut of fine grass soil - which will fit there as a form. Put the eggs in a matchbox with sand and put them in the center of the cage. When the primroses hatch , they will start eating only small and thin grass. As you grow in molts, your appetite will increase. Then after 3 weeks, change the tenderloin in the cage! T k grass will then inevitably stop growing, sucking all the nutrients out of a piece of land.

Maybe instead of" small-grass soil " suitable sprouts of cereals?

05.07.2016 7:41, GrigorY66

Easy ways? No, it won't do at all - it's not like fillies can only eat sedge grass. Grays need mixed grasses. Young wormwood, clover, and some other meadow stuff.

05.07.2016 14:52, ИНО

What does sedge have to do with it? I'm talking about cereals. Commercially available mixtures for rodents or birds contain many types of seeds, and not just cereals. I just didn't understand what you mean by "fine-grassy ground", thought tipchak or something like that. If you need all the different grasses, this means a hefty biotope terrarium like Pan Hirrophis. Wormwood (feminine, actually) do grasshoppers eat at all? This is a natural insecticide, or at least a repellent. It used to be placed under beds to drive away cockroaches and bedbugs. Without an accurate definition of the species composition of forage plants, the result of following your advice is not very predictable. After all, it is not a fact that another person will get the same" small-grass soil " as you. I don't know about decticuses, we have very few of them, but for tettigonia larvae, the natural starting food is pollen, nectar and parts of flowers. They especially like dandelions.

To get a suitable one, you need to take it from the habitats. The blacksmiths didn't come from the store either! There are meadow grasses, and their seeds are plentiful in the half-bare ground, in addition to the overwintered roots. And these "green forelocks" even cats do not eat well. And the fillies didn't eat much. And the one from the ground-they eat perfectly. All OK checked, not just OK fistula.
Wormwood - I have gray ones and the horse races ate well, here are these peas on it, which then get dusty. But wormwood is also meadow and steppe. I watched how in the steppe, where it grows in large bunches, caudates live.
And the repellent is still a spray can from mosquitoes and horseflies, it is also put under the bed, so that you don't forget to take it with you in the morning.....)

Is this such an original trolling? If not, then I'll try to explain the problem again:" from the ground " a lot of things grow, and it's not a fact that accidentally picking up a handful of it will get exactly what you need. In places where grasshoppers live, you can't fill up a lot of land with different seeds and roots in a jar. And the plants are not evenly mixed in space, but are arranged in a mosaic. Grasshopper between their spots in nature can easily and freely move and choose the right ones. If you were even slightly enlightened in the field of botany (otherwise it's really funny to read about" peas that get dusty in the steppe and lair sagebrush") and could identify at least some of the plants on which you managed to successfully grow young grasshoppers, you would make life much easier for your followers.

At least two locust species are perfectly cultivated exclusively on seed sprouts from purchased packages for grouse: migratory and desert.

A repellent is a substance that repels insects (and in a broad sense - not necessarily insects), it can be a spray from a can, or a wormwood shoot. From a good bunch of wormwood bitter, all six-legged animals that live in abundance under the bed of a cheap campsite house actually escape in a panic, this method is successfully used by my friends. But I can't do that, I'm allergic to it.

Grigor, are you sure you mean wormwood? I've been mixing wormwood and tansy for a while

Also, how long will the eggs take to hatch? Don't they need winter quarters?

07.07.2016 10:34, GrigorY66

Yes, in botany is not strong, et you correctly noticed). There are plants that repel moths, for example - lily of the valley or lavender, and murmurs and bees sit on it. It's the same with wormwood. I must say right away-my grasshoppers ate meadow, in the steppe I only saw them sitting. And the more mixed grasses in the garden-the more choice. In general, small gray ones eat young clover (pink)best of all

1) Yellow tansy. My grandmother told me earlier that it was poisonous, but I don't know exactly how much. But I could see the cantans twittering on its blossoms.
2) Incubation. At least 2.5 months of natural frost, with rain, snow and thaws. Put the eggs in a breathable box (peat pot) with sand and water. It is better to take soil or sand from the blacksmiths ' habitat, I don't know why, but this is their native land and the necessary chemical composition will better preserve the eggs. And on the street (a balcony, if a loggia-then hide somewhere in the park or in the country). Make sure that the ground is not dry, but you do not need to fill it, and if it freezes, it's not terrible. The molehills on the hills are also freezing. But you can't put it in the freezer.
And after moving them from the street to the heat (artificial arrival of summer) , they will lie until hatching from 8-15 days. First, let the soil dry for a few days, then water it and so alternate until they hatch. See that it would be soft and without scabs, otherwise predlichinki will not be able to break through it. The eggs will hatch in 4 to 15 minutes. And all hatch at once, if from the same clutch and were in the same incubation.
In general, chewed from and to, try, everything will work out)

GrigorY66, you are a troll after all. It seems that you will like to mention some plants unknown to science under the names "meadow wormwood" and "steppe wormwood"in the order of trolling in each post. Nothing else can explain the use of these strange names, even after I noticed that the word "wormwood" in Russian is feminine.

07.07.2016 23:56, GrigorY66

Aha, the mummy troll!) You will find somewhere else such a detailed description of the incubation of eggs and their hatching, which I described, and then describe it.
Here the topic is about breeding straight-winged plants, and not the batanic course, so I may not know the true names of most plants, I describe them only by their appearance. And that's it.

08.07.2016 1:28, ИНО

One thing does not interfere with the other: a normal discussion of the topic and thick trolling can perfectly be considered even within the same post.

08.07.2016 9:52, irigannika

I wonder what kind of eggs the grasshoppers have)))

With a bucket.....)
