1. How to raise white jade snails in summer and how long is their lifespan?

1. Ventilation and cooling: Do a good job of cooling, use fans and air conditioners to control the temperature, and keep the temperature at 20-30℃. 2. Choose feed: Use green feed such as vegetables and fodder as food for white jade snails, and avoid feeding wheat bran, cornmeal and other foods to prevent mold. 3. Spray water mist: Frequently spray water mist in the breeding place to maintain humidity and prevent the back shell of the white jade snail from drying and cracking. 4. Disease prevention and control: Keep hygiene, clean regularly, and disinfect the feeding trough on time.

1. How to raise white jade snails in summer

1. Ventilation and cooling

(1) After entering summer, the temperature in most parts of my country is generally high, usually exceeding 30℃. At this time, the white jade snail will stop eating, so it is necessary to do a good job of cooling down.

(2) Generally, fans, air conditioners and other electrical appliances can be used to control the temperature, keeping the temperature between 20-30°C.

2. Choose feed

(1) Under high temperature and humidity conditions, foods such as cornmeal and wheat bran are prone to mold. Therefore, it is not suitable to feed white jade snails with such feed in summer to prevent adverse conditions.

(2) It is recommended to feed vegetables and fodder, and wash them repeatedly before feeding to ensure cleanliness and hygiene.

3. Spray water mist

(1) White jade snails like to live in a humid environment, and the evaporation rate of water is faster in summer, so during the breeding process, water mist should be sprayed frequently on the ground and in the air to maintain appropriate humidity.

(2) If the humidity is low, the shell of the white jade snail will dry out and crack, affecting its normal growth.

4. Prevent and treat diseases

(1) White jade snails are prone to disease in summer, especially in high temperature and high humidity environments, so hygiene must be maintained and the snails must be cleaned regularly, and the feeding troughs must also be disinfected on time.

(2) If necessary, you can feed the white jade snail with insecticides to prevent it from getting sick.

2. How long is the life span of white jade snails?

1. The life span of white jade snail is generally 5-6 years. White jade snail is hermaphroditic, cross-fertilized, mating time is usually at dawn or night, can lay eggs 6-7 times a year, April to June and September to November are the egg-laying period, artificial breeding under suitable conditions can reproduce all year round.

2. White jade snails usually lay eggs in holes, with about 150 eggs laid each time. The eggs are covered with a layer of shiny white membrane and are the size of mung beans. They can hatch after 8-15 days.

3. The white jade snail is very sensitive to the environment. If it is in an environment with unsuitable temperature and humidity, it will retract its body into the shell, then secrete mucus to seal the shell opening to form a protective film to overcome the interference of the adverse environment.

2. How to feed the white jade snail after laying eggs?

1. Breeding environment The breeding room should be dark and humid. Snails like darkness, not because they don't need sunlight, but to avoid direct sunlight. For example, they can be raised in buildings, bungalows, basements, air-raid shelters, etc. Each group occupies 1 square meter.

2. Customization of breeding boxes: The breeding practice of snail farmers across the country has proved that a breeding box with a volume of 40*50*10cm can breed about 100 species of snails. A group of species of snails (200) can have two such wooden boxes, or it can be customized according to actual conditions (the wooden box is preferably made of odorless poplar, willow, or birch). Plastic basins, brick pools, etc. can also be used as substitutes.

3. Requirements for breeding soil: Finer river sand is better for growing snails. For young cattle, you can add humus-rich, loose and moist garden soil, but it must not contain pest eggs, and must not be contaminated by harmful substances such as fertilizers and pesticides.

4. Temperature control: The temperature can be controlled above 12 degrees to mate and lay eggs. 15℃～25℃ is the most suitable temperature for reproduction. The temperature is 5 degrees below zero and above 32 degrees, and it enters a dormant state. Therefore, we must do everything possible to ensure that the indoor temperature is above 15 degrees, so that more eggs can be laid and economic benefits can be improved. Under suitable conditions, the large snail can breed 3 to 5 times a year, and each breeding bull can produce more than 4 kilograms of commercial cattle per year.

5. Ensuring humidity is the core of management. Indoor air humidity should be controlled within the range of 70% to 85%. The breeding soil can be kneaded into a ball and will fall apart when touched (this is a sign of 30% to 40% humidity). The humidity of the breeding soil for breeding cattle can be 30%. 35% to 40% is best for commercial cattle. The thickness is generally 800 meters.

6. Feeding good feed is the guarantee of success. Snails are omnivorous animals. Green feed: such as cabbage, lettuce, sunflower leaves, melon leaves, bean leaves, tomatoes, eggplants, etc.; juicy feed: such as various melon peels, fruit tubers, cucumbers, potatoes, carrots, etc. Add some concentrated feed. Snails have a wide range of diets, but their appetite is small. A group of snails only eats two large pieces of cabbage leaves a day. Feed the snails once every two days, and the commercial snails once a day. It is best to put the feed at dusk.

7. Breeding of snails Snails are hermaphroditic lower-level mollusks. When the breeding bulls are sexually mature, they mate with each other and lay eggs regardless of gender. After mating, the breeding bulls start to dig holes and lay eggs about 10 days later, which takes 1 to 2 days. Collect the egg masses and put them in a half-bottle of wet sand for natural incubation. The hatching will be completed in 12 to 15 days.

Like a child

I'm dizzy and laughing to death. Haha. Pay attention and study hard. Haha, go read a book.

3. How to breed white jade snails, with breeding methods

First, when two snails meet, their tentacles will repeatedly touch, especially their heads will face each other, and their bodies will be connected in parallel, so that their reproductive cavities can touch each other. After the contact, the genitals will reverse and the penis will be inserted into the other's reproductive hole. This is the way snails mate. After the snails mate, the fertilized eggs will generally be discharged from the body.

1. How to breed white jade snails

1. All snails are hermaphrodites, and the white jade snail is no exception. Their reproduction requires fertilization. During reproduction, two snails will repeatedly contact each other with their tentacles, their heads will be linked to each other, and their bodies will be connected in parallel, so that their reproductive cavities can touch each other. After contact, the genitals will reverse, and the penis will be inserted into the other's reproductive hole. This is the mating method of snails. The mating time of snails is relatively long, often mating for 2-3 hours, and some can even mate for about 4-5 hours.

2. After mating, the fertilized eggs of snails will be discharged from the body. They do not grow inside the mother's body, but are discharged directly from the body through the reproductive pores. They are usually placed in the moist soil underground or under the leaves, so that the snails will slowly grow and develop inside the egg shells, and after a certain period of time, the young will break out of the shells.

3. Before laying eggs, snails will dig holes in the soil and burrow into the soil until they have finished laying eggs. Since it takes about 2 hours for snails to lay eggs, they must be given nutrition on a regular basis, otherwise they will easily die of exhaustion during egg laying. Snails are hermaphrodites and can lay eggs 7 times a year, with an average of about 200 eggs each time.

2. Breeding method of white jade snail

1. Breeding preparation

(1) Temperature: The suitable temperature for white jade snail is around 20-30°C. Its growth rate will be faster in an environment with a temperature of 26-28°C.

(2) Humidity: When raising white jade snails indoors, the air humidity must be around 75-95%, and the soil humidity can be around 35-45%.

(3) Soil: When raising white jade snails, you can choose garden soil with high fertility or soil rich in organic matter as feed soil.

2. Stocking density

(1) Species selection: Choose snails that have strong adaptability to the environment, dark shell color, weigh about 40g, and are very active.

(2) Density: The stocking density can be determined according to the growth time of the white jade snail. Generally, the stocking density of white jade snails is 150-200 per square meter. When the white jade snail is one month old, about 2,000 can be raised per square meter, and about 800 can be raised at two months old. When it reaches adulthood, 30-50 can be raised per square meter.

3. Feeding

The green fodder commonly eaten by white jade snails mainly includes vegetables, leaves and aquatic plants. When feeding white jade snails, you can choose some corn flour and rice bran to match the concentrated feed.

4. Feeding method

(1) The amount of feed must be determined based on the growth of the snail. Generally, the daily feed amount is 10% of the body weight of the white jade snail.

(2) When feeding white jade snails, it is important to ensure a balanced nutritional mix and it is not advisable to feed them a single feed for a long time.
