Adult turtle ecological breeding method

Abstract

The invention discloses a middle-aged and adult turtle ecological breeding method which can shorten growth cycle and meet quality requirements of wild turtles. The method includes the steps of A, stocking soft-shelled turtles, wherein the stocking specification per each mu of the soft-shelled turtles is 400-450 turtles, each turtle is about 200 grams heavy, the soft-shelled turtles are disinfected through dipping bath before being put into a pond, and the soft-shelled turtles are soaked for 15 minutes through a mixture of 5% saline solution and 5% baking soda; B, conducting feed putting management, wherein animal feed as the main and vegetable feed as the auxiliary are put in according to the daily feeding quantity accounting for 5-7% of the total weight of the turtles in the pond twice everyday from 6 o'clock to 7 o'clock in the morning and 5 o'clock to 6 o'clock in the afternoon, and the feed is evenly put on beaches around the pond. The method has the advantages that the quality of commercial turtles is comprehensively improved, growth cycle is shortened, and the quality of commercial turtles produced through the ecological breeding method can be compatible with the quality of wild turtles.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for cultivating ecological soft-shelled turtles, in particular to a method for cultivating adult soft-shelled turtles, and belongs to the field of farming by-products. Background technique [0002] Soft-shelled turtle is a temperature-changing animal, which is very sensitive to changes in the external environment temperature, and its growth rate changes with the local natural temperature. In the Yangtze River Basin, from the end of October every year, when the water temperature drops to about 15 degrees Celsius, the nutrient intake of soft-shelled turtles will decrease significantly or even stop, and the growth rate of soft-shelled turtles will also decrease and stop growing; when the water temperature drops below 10-12 degrees Celsius At this time, the soft-shelled turtle dives into the sediment at the bottom of the water and begins to hibernate for 5-6 months. Body weight can drop by 10-15%. From early June to late ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the quality of commercial soft-shelled turtles produced by the method of raising soft-shelled turtles in greenhouses is relatively poor, and the price is only about 1 / 5 of that of wild soft-shelled turtles, and about 1 / 4 of that of pond-raised soft-shelled turtles.
