Special feed for messor barbarus and preparation method of special feed

Abstract

The invention discloses a special feed for messor barbarus and a preparation method of the special feed. The special feed is prepared from the following raw materials in parts by weight: 100-200 parts of purified water, 40-60 parts of agar, 20-40 parts of cockroaches, 15-35 parts of tenebrio molitor, 10-15 parts of silkworm chrysalis, 5-10 parts of octopus ink sacs, 10-15 parts of neocaridina denticulata, 12-15 parts of corn, 5-10 parts of pine needles, 15-25 parts of orychophragmus violaceus seeds, 15-25 parts of white clover seeds, 15-25 parts of red clover seeds, 15-25 parts of trifolium hybridum seeds, 15-25 parts of folium ilicis chinensis seeds, 15-25 parts of milk vetch seeds, 15-25 parts of astragalus adsurgens seeds, 20-30 parts of phalarit canariensis, 20-30 parts of Niger grass seeds, 10-15 parts of millet, 5-10 parts of rapeseeds, 5-10 parts of yellow millet, 5-10 parts of red millet and 20-35 parts of Nyger seeds. According to the special feed and the preparation method thereof disclosed by the invention, natural raw materials are selected, and an appropriate compounding ratio is selected, so that all nutritional requirements desired for growth of the messor barbarus are met, the food intake of messor barbarus groups is increased, the palatability of the feed is strengthened, the development speed of communities is increased, the egg laying quantity is increased, and the special feed has obvious promotion effects of promoting the growth and the development of the messor barbarus, strengthening the disease resistance, improving propagation function and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of biotechnology, in particular to a special feed for native harvesting ants and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The native harvester ant (Messor barbarus) is an insect belonging to the Formicaceae family, the genus Harvester Ant. It is widely distributed in southern Europe and northern Africa. Worker ants are about 4-12mm long and have obvious size differentiation. The small and medium-sized workers are small in size and are generally responsible for collecting seeds and taking care of the queen's eggs; Defend the ant nest; the body length of the queen is about 13 mm, the body color is brownish red black, and the body shape is obviously thicker than the worker ants. [0003] Native harvester ants reproduce faster, worker ants have obvious size differentiation, and are beautiful in shape and easy to raise. Since 2013, they have gradually become popular in the domestic pet ant cir...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, the feed for native harvesting ants in China is single in nutrition, which leads to the slow development of the native harvesting ant colony, long growth cycle, and low egg production. Moreover, this kind of feed is mostly made of native animal and plant raw materials in China, and its smell and taste do not conform to the original The habit of harvesting ants leads to less food intake and slow colony development
