1. Quiet environment Intimate breeding ponds, as far as possible in the quiet, sunny, sheltered place, especially in the vicinity of no sudden loud noise, such as shooting range, blasting stone, airfield and so on. In the mating season of turtles, people and animals must be prevented from disturbing the pool. In the mating season, feed as early as possible in the afternoon every afternoon in order to catch turtles in the evening, and it is advisable to go before the spawning. 2. Adjust water quality Turtles like to live in light green or tea green water body activity, the general transparency can be within 10-30 cm, if necessary, such as the summer can be stocked in the pool some arborvitae, water lotus, shade can be high temperature, but also reduce Organic water loads, regulate water quality, some turtles also like to eat green plants in order to increase vitamin intake. It is advisable to maintain the pH of the water and 6.6-8.1, and to prevent the contamination of strong acids, strong alkaline substances and toxic substances. The chemical test paper is used to test the PH value every month. If the deviation is less than 6.6, it can be adjusted with fresh lime slurry. 3. The density is appropriate When the water depth is 1 meter, 3 turtles are stocked per square meter; when the water depth is 2 meters, 6 stocks are stored per square meter; when the water depth is less than 0.5 meters, 2 stocks per square meter are appropriate. If the water is too shallow, the stocking density should be reduced so that it has a relatively quiet activity space. 4. Male and female ratio Generally, the ratio of male and female turtles is 1:2. If the ratio is more than 1:3, the fertilization rate of females is significantly decreased. At 1:1, too many males are also likely to interfere with female oviposition. The turtle species should also be appropriately adjusted for different types of feral turtle species, such as the olecranon turtle, the proportion of males of snapping turtles should be less, and yellow turtles, turtles, turtles and other temperate turtle species can be more some. 5. Whole estate egg farm In the spawning ground, half of the mud is blended, and the table is leveled. The ground is shed and protected from heavy rain. During the spawning season, the eggs are picked up and re-leveled every day. This is conducive to the subsequent spawning turtles digging turtle spawning pits. , It is convenient for artificial eggs. In dry weather, water can be sprayed on water and soil to prevent the eggs from losing water after being laid and affecting the hatching rate. A good spawning site can prevent females from accidentally laying eggs in pool water because they cannot find a comfortable spawning location. 6. Guaranteed nutrition The content of protein in turtle feed should not be lower than 395-41%, calcium content is not less than 1.2%, compound vitamin is not less than 1.1%, lysine is not less than 1%, and mineral salt is not less than 1%. If there is no special feed, it can be replaced by quail feed and the effect is equally good. Sporadic household culture, as much as possible to feed more small fish, shrimp, shellfish, clams, cocoons, insects and animal waste, such as the internal organs of pigs and sheep, and appropriate mix of corn flour, soybean cake, peanut cake, etc. And feeding. 7. Scientific feeding Several feeding sites are fixed in turtle ponds to reduce feed wastage and reduce the physical exertion of finding food. Timing feeding is conducive to digestion and absorption of turtles, quantitative, according to the turtle body weight per day feeding amount of not less than 3%, such as feed more water should increase the amount of feeding, then the corresponding reduction in spring and autumn. It is advisable to feed the feed in turtle ponds in 2 hours. 8. Increase lighting Supplementing light can increase appetite, facilitate nutrient digestion and absorption, and increase spawning. From the beginning of summer to early fall, you can hang a sunlamp at Turtle Pond and turn on the lights two hours before dawn in the morning. You can also use lights to lure insects and moths to eat freely. 9. Adjust the water temperature Turtle overwinter water temperature remained between 3-12 degrees, let the turtle deep hibernation, so as not to affect the oviposition of eggs the following year. Before and after the winter, the weather is fine. During the day, the pool water can be properly reduced. The sunlight can be used to warm the pool water. At night or in rainy weather, the pool water insulation can be deepened, which is beneficial to feeding more turtles and lays the foundation for prolific eggs.
