Three keys to benefit turtles

The collection of turtles, which are used for medicine, food, and viewing, is being favored by a large number of farmers. How to cultivate turtles has always been of concern to farmers. The key explanations for the benefits of raising turtles are as follows for farmers' reference.

First, the correct choice of species

The correct choice of varieties will directly affect economic benefits. There are 257 species of turtles in the world, which are classified into ornamental, medicinal, and edible according to their use. Before the introduction, it is necessary to conduct a survey on the turtle market (local and surrounding areas) to determine which type of turtle can benefit, and then introduce the turtle market according to its own conditions (including site, funds, source of feed, water source, etc.). At present, the ornamental red-eared turtle still has a market in the domestic market, especially the young hatchling (the turtle that hatched in the past). It has a market with low prices and high quality, but most of the young turtles on the domestic market still rely on imports. Edible snapping turtles have the characteristics of fast growth, strong adaptability, and high meat content, and are new breeding hotspots in turtles. Medicinal turtles such as the three-lined turtle have good prospects for development.

Second, ensure the seed quality

Turtle seedlings are divided into hatchlings and hatchlings. The hatchling refers to the turtle that was bred that year. Juvenile turtles are turtles that are kept for more than one year and weigh less than 250 grams. The selection of turtle seedlings can be observed in terms of mental status, appearance and weight. The shape is harmless, claws are complete, and the responsive turtle is considered healthy. A species of turtle refers to a turtle that has reproductive ability. There are two types of turtles, warming and non-warming. It is generally believed that warm-raised turtles have low breeding ability and spawning numbers and should not be used as breeding turtles. Introduction should be to a good reputation, good after-sales service farms or related professional units. Before the introduction, learn about the farms or units that you supply, including the turtle's source, feeding methods, food types, water quality, transportation methods, etc., in order to prepare for the future feeding.

Third, master the breeding technology

Feeding techniques include stocking density, bait, water temperature, disease control, and day-to-day management.

1. Feeding density: The density of the rearing has a direct impact on the growth rate and survival rate of the turtle. The high stocking density restricts the growth of the turtle and can easily cause the turtle to become ill. On the contrary, the turtle grows properly and the incidence is low. Therefore, it is only possible to properly use the pond in order to keep the turtle well fed. In general, the hatchling density of hatchlings is 60-80 eggs per square meter, and the breeding density of adult turtles (300-750 grams) is 5-8 eggs.

2. Feed: The turtle's growth rate, constitution, and resistance, the bait plays a leading role. Feeding on foods that lack certain nutrients will often lead to malnutrition of the turtle and cause disease. Because turtles need different nutrients and quantities at different stages of development. During the hatchling stage, suitable for feeding fresh live bait, such as leeches, red worms, silk worms and Daping No. 2 larvae. Young turtles and commercial turtles are suitable for feeding artificially mixed alfalfa forage, fresh poultry and cattle, and pig internal organs and leftovers, and regularly mix nutrients such as vitamins and trace elements in the diet.

The diet of adult turtles is basically the same as that of young turtles, but in different seasons, different substances must be added to the diet. In the spring, vitamin E and other nutrients need to be added to help the turtle lay eggs. In autumn, drugs such as antibiotics are needed to help prevent diseases and make the turtle safe for winter.

3. Water temperature: The turtle is a temperature-changing animal. The amount of activity and the amount of feeding of the turtle are completely controlled by the temperature of the water. Different types of turtles have different water temperatures. The optimum temperature range for most turtles' growth and development is

25°C~30°C.

4. Disease Prevention and Control: In the turtle industry, disease prevention and control cannot be ignored. Turtle prevalence is difficult to detect only from the appearance of symptoms, once the turtle is found to stop eating, unresponsive, limb weakness and other symptoms, its condition has reached a critical level. Therefore, it is advisable to start with prevention and adhere to the principle of prevention and treatment as supplements.
