PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a rearing container capable of transferring larvae from a container body housing an old feed floor to a container body housing a new feed floor by the transfer of the larvae with their own power so as not to give any stress to the larvae.SOLUTION: Since this rearing container is provided in that an upper lid part (a) has a top board part, ribs formed at the upper surface of the top board part, an air hole formed between the ribs, an upper lid side wall part formed at the outer circumference of the top board part, and an upper lid-fitting part for fitting with an upper cylinder-fitting part installed at the circumference of the lower surface of the top board part and formed at the upper side inner wall of the upper cylinder part, and a bottom lid part (b) has a bottom lid-fitting part fitted with a lower cylinder-fitting part formed at the outer wall of the lower cylinder at the inner wall of the circumferential wall of a bottom plate, a fitting groove part for fitting with the lower end part of the lower cylinder part at the inside of the circumferential wall, and a bottom lid ribs formed at the inside of the fitting groove part, it is possible to join the new container body housing the new feed floor on the container body housing the old feed floor, and transfer the larvae naturally by their own power to the new feed floor.COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT【課題】幼虫にストレスを感じさせないように、古い餌床が入った容器本体から新しい餌床が入った容器本体へと、幼虫が自力で移動することで移し替えができる飼育容器を提供することを目的とする。【解決手段】上蓋部(a)が、天板部と前記天板部の上面に形成されたリブ及び前記リブ間に形成された空気孔と、前記天板部の外周に形成された上蓋側壁部と、前記天板部の下面に周設され前記上筒部の上側内壁に形成された上筒嵌着部と嵌着する上蓋嵌着部とを有し、前記底蓋部(b)が底板の周壁の内壁に前記下筒部の外壁に形成された下筒嵌着部が嵌着される底蓋嵌着部と、前記周壁の内側に前記下筒部の下端部を嵌合する嵌合溝部と、前記嵌合溝部の内側に形成された底蓋リブと、を有しているので、古い餌床の入った容器本体の上に、新しい餌床を入れた容器本体を連結することができ、幼虫を自然に自力で新しい餌床に移動させることができる。【選択図】図7
