How to breed frogs, frog breeding technology and frog breeding methods

The key to frog breeding technology and frog breeding methods is the place of reproduction and breeding:

The key to frog breeding technology is artificial breeding, because wild field frogs often have a parasite called diplodia that lives in the frog's muscles. Artificial egg-laying and isolation of adult frogs can effectively prevent the disease.

The breeding area is stocked at a density of about 1 group of frogs per 3 square meters (better to stock before May). The frogs are required to be large and fat, and the parent frogs are preferably 1 to 2 years old. The male and female mixed stocking ratio is 3:1, and the stocking density is relatively less than that of meat frogs. It takes about three years for the young frogs to reach sexual maturity.

Reproduction management:

(I) Spawning: Artificial spawning grounds require a still water area, and cage spawning is generally used, which means frogs are forced to lay eggs in baskets or cages. Male and female frogs are placed in a 1:1 ratio, and 5 spawning baskets or cages can be placed in an area of ​​20 square meters. The depth of the pool water should be maintained at 10-15 cm, and the water temperature should be maintained at 10℃-11℃. In order to increase the hatching rate, the eggs can be protected by a fence to prevent them from sinking after being disturbed by the parent frogs.

(ii) Incubation: The temperature of frog fertilized eggs should be kept at 20℃~28℃ during the incubation period, mainly natural incubation; plastic film covering incubation method and waterless incubation method can also be used. Generally, all tadpoles can be hatched after 3~5 days. Newborn tadpoles rely on the egg membrane to survive safely. Do not stir the pond water casually. After all frogs lay eggs, catch the frogs out of the pond to avoid disturbing the hatching and tadpole living environment. Five days after the eggs are hatched, they can be fed with concentrated feed, such as soy milk, egg yolk, water fleas and aquatic plankton, twice a day, but the amount of feed should not be too much, so as not to deteriorate the water quality and cause the death of tadpoles. After 1 week of feeding, the tadpoles can be moved into the breeding pond for breeding.

Feed configuration and feeding method:

1. Feeding: water spinach, tomatoes and aquatic plankton. In addition, earthworms can be raised on the soil pile. As long as 3-5% lime water is sprinkled on the soil pile in pieces every evening, the earthworms will come out in droves and serve as frog bait. Put the puffed feed in a dry place in the frog pond. When the frogs smell the unique smell of the feed, they will crawl over to find food.

2. Formula: fish meal 16%, peanut bran 16%, wheat bran 18%, corn 25%, second-grade flour 20%, bone meal 0.5%, additives (including attractants, adhesives, nutritional additives) 4.5%.

Data on artificial breeding and reproduction technology of edible frogs

Frog farming is not as good as toad farming. On average, 3,000 toads can be raised on one acre of land. One person can manage it. The one-time investment is more than 10,000 yuan, and the production lasts for 6-8 months each year. The annual income is conservatively estimated to be more than 100,000 yuan. The larger the scale, the higher the benefits.

It is also very important to feed frogs. When they are in the tadpole stage, their main food is some plankton in the water, so at this time, you can pay attention to adding some organic fertilizer in the breeding pond, so that the plankton species in the pond will be richer. After they develop into frogs, they can eat more insects, such as fruit flies, armyworms, corn borers, crickets and other species. In addition, it is also okay to feed them some small fish and shrimps.

Temperature and light: When breeding frogs, you also need to pay attention to regulating temperature and light. The temperature cannot be too low, because frogs are cold-blooded animals, and too low a temperature will cause their body temperature to be too low. Specifically, the most suitable temperature for different species of frogs is also different, and it can be adjusted specifically. Another thing is light, it cannot always be very dark.

Hygiene: When breeding frogs, you must pay attention to maintaining hygiene. The environment around the frogs cannot be too dirty or messy, otherwise the frogs will easily get sick. You need to pay attention to cleaning the debris and garbage in the surrounding environment. In addition, there is the issue of water sources. You also need to ensure that the frogs have clean water sources.
