1. Where to artificially breed snails?1. The breeding site of snails can be planned and designed according to the scale of breeding. Large-scale breeding can adopt indoor breeding, field breeding, shed breeding, soil ditch breeding and other methods, while small-scale breeding can adopt tank breeding, wooden box breeding, courtyard breeding, balcony breeding and other methods. Regardless of which breeding method is used, the breeding site must be set up and planned according to the characteristics of snails, but the snails must be placed in a quiet, dark, humid, warm and vibration-free environment. 2. You can use farmland to breed snails. First, plow the soil and then fine it. Plant some broad-leaved trees around the farmland to provide shade. Be sure to use nets around it to effectively prevent snails from escaping. You can also use the roof of a flat-roofed house for breeding. Put a layer of loose soil more than 10 cm thick on the roof, and plant a few grapes around it to build a trellis for shade. Use nets around it. The advantages of open-air breeding are fresh air, good humidity, fast growth of snails, and mild disease. But be careful. When the weather is dry, you must sprinkle water in time to keep the soil moist. 3. You can also choose to breed snails in plastic greenhouses. First, choose an open space of 30 meters long and 6 meters wide, plow the soil once, build a 30cm high wall around it, and then build a plastic greenhouse. After the greenhouse is built, level the plowed soil in the greenhouse and you can breed. The advantage of breeding in plastic greenhouses is that it is easy to adjust the temperature and prevent natural enemies, but you should pay attention to adding sunshade facilities in the hot season to keep the soil moist and the air properly convective. 2. What soil should be used for breeding snails? 1. To breed snails, you must use moist, loose, humus-rich soil, and in order to prevent the soil from hardening, you should replace it about once every six months or a year. At the same time, the soil humidity should be kept at 15%-18%, and must not exceed 21%. You can also mix farmland soil, sandy soil, yellow sand, cinder ash, and stone powder in a ratio of 3:2:1:5:0.5 to make breeding soil, then expose it to the sun for a few days for disinfection, and finally add appropriate amount of water to make the soil humidity reach 40%. 2. Snails prefer to live in a dark, humid, loose and humus-rich environment. They are afraid of direct sunlight and are sensitive to the environment. They usually hide in caves during the day and come out to look for food at night. Snails will live in the soil, lay eggs, regulate body humidity and absorb some nutrients. The suitable growth temperature is 23-30°C. When the temperature is below 15°C, they will enter hibernation. 3. Snails have a particularly strong ability to survive and have a strong tolerance to cold, heat, hunger and drought. They have a wide range of diets, including all kinds of vegetables, weeds, melon and fruit peels, crop stems and leaves, flowers, juicy fruits, etc. You can feed them tender leaves, weeds, melon and fruit peels, crop stems and leaves, various green grass and highland barley feeds, etc., and feed them three times a day. 2. Should the soil for raising snails be loose or tight?It is best to use moist, loose, humus-rich soil for snails, and to prevent the soil from hardening, it is best to replace it once every six months or a year. 3. What do you need to prepare to raise snails?To raise snails, you need to prepare a site. The site should be close to the natural environment, with good air quality, fertile soil and no pollution. The best breeding grounds are farmlands and orchards. You need to know the temperature and humidity that are suitable for snail growth. The temperature should be kept at around 25 degrees, which can promote faster growth and development. The humidity should be around 40%, not too high or too low. You should also pay attention to the lighting. You should be able to adjust the light intensity well and install a dimming setting. 4. How to choose and process the soil for snail breeding?In the container where snails are raised, you can add some ordinary soil, sprinkle some water from time to time, and keep the environment cool and moist. Snails are active at night, so feeding them should be arranged in the evening and there is no need to feed them during the day. Feeding method: It is best to choose a single variety of vegetables, fruit leaves, and green plant stems and leaves each time to avoid waste caused by snails only eating the feed they like. Green feed can be placed directly on the breeding soil, or on a net woven from plastic ropes, allowing the snails to forage for food 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 first be mixed with warm water in a basin, and the amount of water should be enough to form a ball when held in the hand and disperse when loosened. Remember that feed cannot be placed in an iron basin to prevent the iron basin from rusting and poisoning the snails after eating. 5. What are the requirements for snail breeding sites?Soil environment: Snails like to burrow into humus soil to live and lay eggs, so it is recommended to use nutrient soil rich in humus. Temperature conditions: The suitable temperature conditions for snail farming are between 16-30 degrees Celsius, avoiding temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius or below 5 degrees Celsius. Moist and dark: Snails hide during the day and come out at night. They are afraid of direct sunlight, so a moist breeding environment is required. 6. What are the methods and techniques for breeding land snails?1. Suitable environment. In the process of raising snails, mix leaf mold, peat soil and fine sand to prepare the soil, and place the breeding container in a cool and ventilated place, keep the temperature at around 23 degrees, and the air humidity at 60 to 70 percent. Pay attention to the snails raised in the open air, and take shading measures for them. 2. Feeding. Snails are omnivorous and partial eaters. During the breeding process, they can be fed with various vegetable leaves, fruit peels, wheat flour, white beans and other foods, and the types of food should be changed regularly. Do not feed a single food to avoid poor growth of snails. In addition, irritating foods should not be fed to snails. 3. Daily maintenance. When raising snails, you must ensure that the breeding environment is clean and sanitary to prevent bacteria from growing, which is not conducive to the growth and health of the snails. Usually, you should clean the box every three to four days to remove food residues, snail feces, etc. in the box. Note that leaves and branches need to be placed in the box to provide a place for the snails to crawl and play. 7. Do I need to change the soil for raising white jade snails frequently?To raise white jade snails, you need to use loose, moist, humus-rich soil, and replace it every six months or a year to avoid the soil from becoming compacted and hardened. When breeding, you can also mix farmland soil, sandy soil, yellow sand, cinder ash, and stone powder in a ratio of 3:2:1:5:0.5 to make breeding soil, then expose it to the sun for several days for disinfection, and then add an appropriate amount of water to make the soil humidity reach 40%. Snails have strong survival ability and are tolerant to cold, heat, drought, and hunger. At the same time, they also have a wide range of diets. They can feed on various weeds, vegetables, melon and fruit peels, and can also feed on the stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits of crops. 8. How to keep snails alive longer?1. Temperature: The cultivation temperature should be controlled between 16 and 40°C; 2. Soil: The breeding soil should be moist and fluffy humus soil; 3. Light: Snails are shade-loving animals and do not need sunlight. During the breeding season, you can give snails some scattered light to stimulate egg laying. 4. Humidity: The relative humidity of the air in the breeding environment should be between 80% and 90%; 5. Feeding: Feed the snail one to two pieces of vegetable leaves every day. |
