How to feed snails?

Question 1: How to raise small snails? You can put it in a box, the bigger the better. And generally like dark and humid places (what tree holes, behind leaves), rather than those with many blisters.

In the wild, snails like sweet bananas. Snails are vegetarian. Give some skins to Chinese cabbage, green vegetables, Chinese cabbage, carrots, sugar cane and melons for preservation. (If it appears on lettuce, feed it to lettuce. It can be chopped. )

PS: But snails can't live long by themselves. I don't know why. Sugarcane is its favorite ~

I hope my answer can help you ~

Question 2: How to raise snails? It likes to live in a dark, humid, relaxed and humorous environment. It doesn't sleep during the day and comes out at night. It is afraid of light and heat, and is most afraid of direct sunlight. Very sensitive to the environment, when the humidity and temperature are not suitable, the snail will retract its body into the shell, secrete mucus to form a protective film and seal the shell mouth to overcome the interference of bad environment. When the environment is suitable, it will automatically dissolve the protective film and start activities again. Therefore, we should pay attention to the influence of temperature and humidity in the process of breeding. Suitable temperature 16℃~30℃, humidity 60%~85%, soil humidity about 40%, pH 5~7. When the temperature is lower than 15℃ and higher than 35℃, it sleeps and stops growing and reproducing.

I like to eat taro, bread tree, banyan tree, Erythrina, Wedelia, vegetables, mushroom bulbs, mushrooms, melon and fruit leaves, fungi, Acorus gramineus, ramie, rattan, Taiwan Province green pod leaves, hibiscus, dead branches, rotten leaves, grapes and so on.

You don't need a bath.

Snails are hermaphroditic creatures, regardless of gender. Both father and mother.

Question 3: How to raise snails First of all, it is best to raise snails in wooden boxes. Snails do not dry because of their good moisture retention. If they are dried, they will shrink into the shell and can't get out. But I think brothers are kept in fancy cages or glass or plastic jars, which is not good. Cages can't store water and are very easy to dry unless you have the energy and time to spray water. Glass jars can store water, but too much water can't be distributed, which is easy to nourish bacteria and produce odor. If you have to use glass jars for beauty and convenience, you have to design them well.

I only say wooden cases here. The wooden box is filled with a mixture of loess and fine sand, the mixing ratio is about 3 sand, 1, and the humidity should be moderate, so that a handful of sand can be pinched into a ball in your hand, and it is best to let go, but it will disperse when touched. Don't mix with mud when stirring. Now, mix the sand with the soil, spray some water on a layer of sand, then spray water on a layer of sand, and so on.

The thickness of sand is at least 5 cm, but it needs at least 8- 10 cm to breed, because snails have to make holes in the soil to breed. It seems that snails always breed in hot weather. When you see a snail mating and drilling into the soil-even if you can't see the snail, you can see it drilling a hole-it means it is going to breed. Make sure it has been bred. At this time, you should dig a hole gently, take out the eggs and put them in a ceramic tile flowerpot. The soil under the egg is 5cm, and the egg is covered with 1-2cm. The sand type and humidity are the same as the soil in the box. Pay attention to keep the humidity. I didn't pay attention to the temperature Anyway, in summer, the white transparent snail will come out in two weeks.

I also want to talk about snail food. I saw that some buddies only feed vegetables and fruits, and their nutrition is not comprehensive. Snails should be fed with a mixture of corn flour, bran, calcium powder and chicken sugar. Spread the mixture on a piece of glass and spray it with water. You can see the snail eating hard. This is supplemented by vegetables and fruits to ensure that your snail grows big and bright.

Feeding method of snail

1, temperature is an important factor affecting its growth activity, and it has the characteristics of liking temperature and avoiding cold, which is determined by genetic factors. Because snails are cold-blooded animals, that is, temperature-changing animals, their body temperature will change with the change of environmental temperature, so temperature is particularly important for the growth and reproduction of snails. The most basic temperature requirement for snail growth activity is 15-39 degrees. The optimum temperature is 25-35 degrees. When the temperature drops to 8 degrees, it will gradually enter a dormant state, and there is a danger of freezing to death below 0 degrees. When the temperature rises to 40 degrees, it will lead to summer sleep.

2. The living habits of snails depend on proper temperature and humidity. This is because snails secrete mucus with high water content in their daily activities to keep their bodies moist. On the other hand, because snails rely on the mantle to breathe air and cannot live in water completely, snails have developed the habit of loving tides and hating soaking.

3, strong light * * * is not good for the growth of snails. Snails are mainly active at night, afraid of direct sunlight during the day and like to live in a dark and humid environment. Snails have poor eyesight and are abnormal. They can only see objects within 6 cm in strong light, but they can see objects within 20 cm in weak light.

4. Under normal circumstances, because snails are afraid of direct sunlight, the temperature difference at night is small, the air humidity is high, and the light is dim, so snails should not lose water in their bodies, and generally move for food at night. The activity law is that the activity starts at around 6 pm, reaches the peak at 8- 12, and gradually weakens after 12, and basically stops at around 8 am the next day and begins to rest.

Snails need to dig into the soil during their growth and development. First, they need to extract nutrients from the soil, such as humus, organic matter and calcium. The second is to adjust the humidity; The third is to resist the enemy's harm; The fourth is to lay eggs.

6. Dormancy is the habit of snails to resist adversity and protect themselves, thus maintaining their lives. When snails encounter unfavorable conditions such as high temperature, low temperature, lack of food and water, they will automatically secrete mucus to form membrane ytterbium and seal the shell mouth. Until the adversity is relieved, they will gradually wake up and continue to move after breaking the membrane. Snails can sleep for six months at most, which means that snails can sleep for six months without eating or dying.

7. Snails are omnivorous animals. They generally feed on the roots, stems, leaves, flowers and fruits of green plants, such as lettuce leaves, Chinese cabbage leaves, pumpkin leaves, loofah leaves, bittersweet stems, sweet potatoes, carrots and various fruits, but they don't like to eat plants with * * * *, such as leeks, garlic, onions, peppers and salty foods. In addition, they eat some sand and soil, because the soil contains rot ... >>

Question 4: What do snails eat and how to raise their feeding habits?

Snails eat a wide range of food, mainly vegetables, weeds and melon skin; Leaves, stems, buds, flowers and juicy fruits of crops; Eat all kinds of grass highland barley feed, juicy feed, bran feed and cake feed. Snails eat with their mouths.

For indoor artificial breeding of snails, it is advisable to choose a leeward open space, and build a feeding shed of 20 meters, 3 meters wide and 2 meters high with bamboo or steel bars, and cover the shed with plastic film. It can also be used to cultivate vegetables in plastic soil shed, old glass greenhouse or soil hotbed. For indoor seedbed cultivation, it is advisable to use cement and steel bars to cast boards with a length of 1 m and a width of 0.8 m, and build them into 3-4 layers with a height of 0.6-0.8 m. Then, screen windows are used to separate each layer, and humus soil with a thickness of 1.5cm is spread on the two layers, so that 30 snails can be placed in each square meter, and 1 is carried out every day. Indoor wooden box breeding should be done in boxes with a length of about 90cm, a width of 45cm and a height of 40cm. Spread humus soil with a thickness of 10 ~ 15 cm in the box and put vegetable leaves. Put 20 ~ 30 snails in two boxes and water them every two nights to make the inner walls of the boxes moist.

Snails should be fed once a night. Vegetables, crops, green manure crops, weeds, roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits, peels, residues and waste paper can all be used, and some concentrated feed, protein feed and mineral feed can also be added. It can also be fed once every two days. Snails can eat leftover rice and humus. Keep sprinkling water, so that the field humidity is 15 ~ 27%, the pH is 5 ~ 7, and the air humidity is 75 ~ 90%. When the young snails hatched in that year, they reached five snail layers in five months, weighing more than 50 grams, and the largest reached about 90 grams. The harm of natural enemies such as chickens, ducks, sparrows, pigeons and mice should be prevented in breeding.

Key points of breeding

Temperature 16 ~ 40℃, the optimum temperature is 25℃, generally high or low. Earthworm fire must be used for heating, and it should be prepared all year round, especially in late spring and early summer, to prevent sudden cooling. Conditional heating is the best, not furnace heating.

Humidity. The soil surface humidity of the feeding soil should be kept at 25% ~ 35%, and the relative humidity of the air should be 85% ~ 90% to make it moist, and the top should be covered with plastic sheets for moisture control and moisturizing.

In order to prevent dry air and cold air from blowing in directly, double doors, hanging cloth and wind deflector should be adopted at the entrance.

Resolutely control the odor from entering the breeding ground.

Feeding soil must be controlled at pH 6.5 ~ 7.5, and sandy soil polluted by pesticides and chemicals shall not be used.

Breeding containers must have good water permeability and air permeability.

When you are not working, don't be in strong light, preferably in the dark. At night, use 15W red light bulb for illumination, so that you can lay eggs.

The hatching of eggs. The key to the success or failure of snail farming lies in the hatching of eggs. Indoor temperature is controlled at 20 ~ 25℃, air humidity is controlled at 90% ~ 95%, and soil surface humidity is controlled at 25% ~ 30%. Improve the method of egg collection and incubation, and adopt the 60-day snail cultivation method. This method can greatly improve the reproductive efficiency of snails, and the general hatching rate is above 95%.

The feeding of young snails is related to the success or failure of the rapid development of snail quantity and output, especially the control of temperature and humidity. Generally, the temperature should be controlled between 25 ~ 30℃, the water content of the soil is 30% ~ 35%, and the relative humidity of the air is 80% ~ 90%. Eat more fresh and juicy feed, supplemented by calcium supplements.

1 ~ 3-month-old snails should be humidified in the pond without splashing water. Spray with a sprayer, preferably warm water.

If dead snails are found, clear them in time.

Always mix earthworms and snails to clean up feces. It is best to kill two birds with one stone.

In order to prevent the invasion of natural enemies and kill rats and ants, regular spraying of trichlorfon solution of11000 can effectively kill the largest natural enemy mite of Oncomelania hupensis, and regular disinfection of snail breeding grounds with peracetic acid diluent can kill pathogenic microorganisms.

The feed formula with the lowest cost and the best effect: 50% rice bran, 40% shells, 8% yeast powder and 2% others.

Feeding and management

Feeding mode

Generally divided into outdoor open and indoor closed two kinds.

Outdoor opening includes ditch type, shed type and courtyard type. To make it grow and breed in the protected area, similar to natural conditions. Indoor closed culture can use plastic pots, pottery pots, wooden boxes, cement pools, cylinders, barrels, cans and so on. Covered with gauze, sealed with wet cloth and film to keep warm and moist and prevent rodents. Indoor closed breeding is convenient for the adjustment of temperature and humidity, and with sufficient feed, it can not only relieve the hibernation of snails, but also achieve the purpose of breeding in winter. Indoor culture is best to use plastic film to seal the surroundings and keep the temperature and humidity.

Preparation of feeding soil

Question 5: Snails are omnivorous animals that are fed several times a day, and they need a variety of nutrients in the process of growth and reproduction. The experiment shows that it takes 2 1 0 days to gain weight to 50g when feeding snails with single feed, but it only takes 150 days when feeding snails with compound feed, with a difference of two months. Therefore, to feed snails well, we must first scientifically prepare feed, and then pay attention to scientific feeding methods.

1. Snails eat a lot, accounting for about 4%-5% of their body weight every day. Generally speaking, the feeding amount should be higher than 4% each time, but not too much. It is best to eat before the next feeding.

2. Feeding frequency in hot summer is generally 1 time a day. Feed 1 day-2 days in spring and autumn. If it is not hot in winter, you can feed enough feed before hibernation, and then feed enough feed after hibernation to restore your physical strength as soon as possible and grow and develop in time. If it is heated in winter, the feeding frequency can be controlled according to the temperature, which is generally 1 time, once every other day.

3. Feeding time Snails are active at night, so the feeding time should be arranged in the evening and there is no need to feed during the day.

4. Feeding methods It is best to choose a single variety for each feeding of vegetables, melon and fruit leaves and green plant stems and leaves to avoid the waste caused by snails eating only their favorite feed.

Question 6: How do snails raise snails? They like humidity. I used to raise it. You prepare a box, put sand in it, spray water and keep it moist. Just put the green leaves inside, preferably covered with plastic, but leave a vent. Go home at night and open the plastic to breathe. Do it. It's easy to raise I have a lot! But just to eat.

Question 7: How to raise snails is correct? Does snail drink water? Snails are omnivorous animals, so they mainly use green feed such as vegetables, broad leaves and aquatic plants, supplemented by a small amount of concentrated feed. Snails eat less, usually 5% of their own weight. Feeding once a day is enough, but it should be noted that snails of different individual sizes should be adjusted at intervals. At the same time, pay attention to the proper feeding time. Because snails are nocturnal, feeding them too early will affect the freshness of feed, and if they are too late, they will miss their best feeding period, so it is generally best to feed them at dusk. The proportion and dosage of feed are also different. Small snails within one month are collectively referred to as young snails. At this time, the snail has a delicate constitution, thin shell, poor adaptability and weak digestive system function. Its feed should be mainly fresh, juicy and digestible green feed. After two weeks, you can add a little concentrate properly, but don't add mineral feed such as bone powder or shell powder too early, otherwise the snail shell will harden prematurely and cannot grow. Snails of 2-5 months are at the peak of growth, so they are called growing snails. It is characterized by large appetite, large appetite and fast growth. At this time, when feeding snails, special attention should be paid to the reasonable collocation of 95% green feed and 5% concentrated feed. At the same time, the concentrated feed should be gradually increased from less to more, so that snails can have an adaptation process. Snails that are 3-4 months old and weigh about 35-40 grams can be sold as commercial snails. After more than five months, the general white jade snails have reached sexual maturity, and snails with high reproduction rate are selected to breed snails. Whether snail feed is scientific or not is one of the important factors that determine the number and quality of eggs laid. At this time, we must feed more fresh and juicy green feed with high chlorophyll content and a certain proportion of additives such as protein and calcium.

Question 8: How to raise snails? Snails like to live in the dark, damp and rancid environment around crops, greenhouses, vegetable sheds and barns, such as bushes, grass, stone piles, fallen leaves of branches, clods and soil crevices, and have wide adaptability, and often move from dusk to early morning. Snails like warmth and are afraid of strong light, which obviously darkens, thus forming a habit of not sleeping during the day and going out at night. If we catch them, we suggest the following places: 1. They like dark, humid and hidden environment, stay up late during the day and go out at night, and are very sensitive to strong light. 2. I like to burrow into loose humus to inhabit, lay eggs, adjust the humidity in my body and absorb some nutrients for as long as 12 hours. 3. Omnivorous food and partial eclipse coexist. I like humidity and am afraid of flood. Snails have a good appetite when they eat wet food on wet nights. But floods will suffocate snails. 5. Self-sufficiency. As soon as the little snail hatches, it crawls to eat without mother's care. When invaded by the enemy, its head and feet retract into the shell, secreting mucus to seal the mouth of the shell; When the shell is damaged and fails, it can secrete some substances to repair the body and the shell. 6. Have strong patience. Snails have amazing viability and strong cold, heat, hunger and drought tolerance. 7. I like constant temperature farming. The temperature is constant between 25 ~ 28℃, and the growth, development and reproduction are vigorous. What do snails eat: Snails eat leaves of plants, especially young leaves of plants. They like vegetables. They are pests! Snails eat 5% of their body weight every day. Generally, plants such as cabbage and lettuce are fed in spring; In summer, you can feed all kinds of fruits and skins, sugar cane, sunflower leaves and so on. Feed vegetable leaves, potato chips and carrots in autumn. Taboo onions, ginger, garlic, leeks, mustard and other foods with peculiar smell. In order to improve the spawning rate, it is best to add snails such as broken wheat, rice bran and bean curd residue during the breeding period. How to raise snails: Snails can be raised in buildings, bungalows, basements, air-raid shelters and other rooms. , courtyard, forest farm, orchard, barren hills and slopes, etc. And it is also a good choice to raise snails in plastic greenhouses. In addition, small-scale farming can also be carried out in wooden boxes, plastic pots, flower pots and brick pools. Cultivation methods include pot culture and water tank culture.
