CATDOLL : CATDOLL: What soil is best for raising white jade snails?

1. What kind of soil is best for raising white jade snails?

The pH of the breeding soil must be controlled at 6.5-7.5. Do not use polluted sand and soil that has been applied with pesticides or chemicals. White jade snails like warmth, are resistant to moisture and shade, and the suitable growth temperature is 18-35℃, and the highest temperature can be 40℃. The relative humidity of the air is 80-85%. Within the suitable range, the higher the temperature, the more beneficial it is for growth. Snails generally live in damp and dark caves or walls. The breeding place can be indoors or outdoors. About 500 snails can be raised per square meter. Cement boards can be used to build stacked boxes, and more than 2,000 snails can be raised per square meter. White jade snails have a wide and diverse diet. They use vegetables and a small amount of concentrated feed such as rice, vegetable cakes, rice bran, etc., with appropriate amounts of bone meal, fish meal, laying hen additives, etc., to make feed that is sprayed wet and fed. Feed every afternoon. Generally, 15 kg of green feed and 2 kg of concentrated feed are added for every 500 snails. The green feed is to meet the food intake. Spray water frequently in the breeding room to keep it moist. When the temperature is too high in summer, you can spray water directly on the snail shell. Outdoor breeding should be shaded to keep it cool. Feed residues and snail feces should be removed regularly in the breeding area. Snails are very sensitive to humidity and their bodies should be kept moist. The snail growth period is about 4 months from late spring to early autumn. In late autumn, insulation should be done well during the wintering period, which is the key to the success of breeding white jade snails. Generally, the temperature should be kept at 20-25℃, and attention should be paid to avoid temperature fluctuations and keep the indoor humidity at 75%-90%. The main diseases of snails are foot rot, emaciation, and gastrointestinal inflammation. For foot rot, veterinary oxytetracycline, erythromycin or potassium permanganate should be used to apply to the affected area, and the environment should be disinfected at the same time. For emaciation and gastrointestinal inflammation, chlortetracycline and doxycycline can be used, and 5 grams of medicine can be mixed with each kilogram of feed and fed once a week. For gastrointestinal inflammation, norfloxacin lactate can also be sprayed with water.

2. I want to raise two snails. What kind is good? What should I use to raise them? What are the precautions? Give me some suggestions. How long can they live if they are raised well?

White jade snails are fed with some coconut soil and water until they can be kneaded into a ball. They are placed in an ordinary fish tank with a lid on. They are sprayed with water from a spray bottle every day and fed with vegetable leaves. However, the leaves must be washed clean, as the snails will die if they are stained with pesticides.

Snails reproduce abnormally under suitable environmental conditions

3. What kind of snail is this? . . Is this a snail? . . I found it on the roadside today. What does it eat? Can I keep it?

The giant African snail (scientific name: Achatina Fulica) is a medium to large terrestrial snail that feeds on a variety of leaves, fruits and vegetables.

4. How to raise snails, the kind that eat clover, I really want to raise one

1. Feeding amount Snails have a large food intake, and their daily food intake accounts for about 4% to 5% of their body weight. Generally speaking, the amount of food fed each time should be higher than 4%, but not too much, so that they can finish eating before the next feeding.

2. Feeding frequency In hot summer, feed once a day. In spring and autumn, feed once every 1-2 days. If there is no heating in winter, feed enough feed before hibernation, and feed enough feed after hibernation, so that it can recover its 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, usually feeding once every other day.

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

4. Feeding method: It is best to choose a single variety of vegetables, fruit leaves, and green plant stems and leaves each time to avoid wasting the feed that the snails only eat. Green feed can be placed directly on the breeding soil or on a net woven from plastic ropes, allowing the snails to forage on their own. Rice bran, wheat bran, fish meal and other feeds should be placed in a porcelain basin and placed in the middle of the pool or box. Compound feed should be mixed with warm water in the basin first, and the amount of water should be such that it can be held in a ball by hand and will fall apart when released. Remember that feed cannot be placed in an iron basin to prevent the iron from rusting and poisoning the snails after eating.
