CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Can golden apple snails be processed into feed?

1. Can the golden apple snail be processed into feed?

Yes, the meat and shell of golden apple snails are a good source of protein and calcium. Even if they are fed raw, ducks love to eat them. Moreover, the meat of ducks fed with golden apple snails is fresh and better than that of ducks fed with mixed feed. They can completely replace fish meal in feed. However, it is recommended to dry and crush the golden apple snails before processing, because golden apple snails are prone to contain parasites.

Pomacea canaliculata, a mollusk of the family Physalis, is very similar to field snails in appearance. Pomacea canaliculata is large, has a wide diet, is highly adaptable, grows and reproduces quickly, and has high yields. Pomacea canaliculata likes to live in fresh water with fresh water quality and sufficient bait. They often live in clusters in shallow water areas near the pond, or attach themselves to the stems and leaves of aquatic plants, or float on the water surface. They can leave the water body for a short period of time. The most suitable water temperature for growth is 25-32℃. When it exceeds 35℃, the growth rate decreases significantly. The highest critical water temperature for survival is 45℃, and the lowest critical water temperature is 5℃. Pomacea canaliculata can naturally overwinter in the vast areas south of the Yangtze River. Pomacea canaliculata can bite off the main tillers and effective tillers of rice, resulting in a reduction in effective panicles and a reduction in yield of more than 20%. In addition to gnawing on aquatic plants such as rice, it also spreads diseases such as Guangzhou roundworm.

Pomacea canaliculata is a mollusk of the family Physalis. It is large, has a wide range of food, is highly adaptable, grows and reproduces quickly, and has a high yield. It is farmed in various parts of China. Its meat is tender and delicious, rich in protein, carotene, multiple vitamins and minerals. It is an ideal animal feed for soft-shelled turtles, and can also be fed to ducks, fish, etc.

It can be used directly as feed or processed.

Can.

Small-ridged golden apple snails can be used as duck feed, and large golden apple snails can be shelled or crushed and fed to carnivorous fish such as black fish and porgy, or fed to bullfrogs, chickens, etc.

You can break the shells and feed them directly to ducks. Ducks lay more eggs. People also eat fried apple snails. You can try it.

2. Can Fushouzhu be fed to loaches?

Apple snails contain many parasites, so it is recommended not to feed them to loaches

There is no such thing as can or cannot, as long as your loach can eat it....

sure

3. Fushouzhu will eat loach

Hello, are you wondering if golden apple snails will eat loaches?

Or have you already known that golden apple snails eat loaches?

The golden apple snail is:

Loach is:

It seems a bit shady. If the loach and the golden apple snail are both alive, and the loach is in good condition and always moves around, the golden apple snail may not be able to eat the loach? Are you saying that the golden apple snail will eat the dead body of the loach or something else?

4. Preparation method of loach feed

Formulated feed for loach: The protein content of the compound feed is required to be high, generally between 35% and 45%. It is also required to have a certain palatability.

The types of raw materials in loach feed formula are:

1. Cereals, generally called energy feeds, include rice, wheat, corn, sorghum, etc.;

2. Cakes and meal, generally called plant protein feed, include soybean cake (protein content 40%~46%), peanut cake (protein content 45%), sesame cake (protein content 40%);

3. Animal protein feed resources include fish meal, clams, snails and fly pupae;

4. Additives include amino acids, vitamins, inorganic salts, fatty acids, antibiotics, hormones, mildew inhibitors, disease prevention agents, antioxidants, attractants, adhesives, anti-floating agents and softeners, etc.

Example of loach feed formula:

Soybean cake powder 20%, inferior imitation flour 6%, wheat flour 12%, fish meal 26%, silkworm pupa feed 29%, blood meal 3%, bone meal 1%, adhesive 3%.

Loaches mostly come out at night to prey on plankton, aquatic insects, crustaceans, debris of higher aquatic plants and algae, and sometimes also ingest bottom humus, mud or residue. When artificially bred, the types of bait fed include maggots, fish meal, pig blood meal, silkworm pupa powder, rice bran, wheat bran, vegetable cakes, etc.

Loach feed formula

20% bean cake powder, 6% second flour, 12% wheat flour, 26% fish meal, 29% silkworm pupa feed, 3% blood meal, 1% bone meal, and 3% adhesive. Artificial compound feed cannot be fed directly to loach, and it needs to go through a domestication process. When artificially training, 65% of special feed can be added to 35% of fresh river clam meat slurry with a mixer or by hand to fully mix into a dough, and then use a 3-4 mm die hole meat grinder to press it into a soft strip bait with a diameter of 3-4 mm and a length of 3-4 cm. It can be fed after slightly air-drying.

Loach feed ingredients

1. Cereals: Cereal feeds are generally called energy feeds, including rice, wheat, corn, sorghum, etc.

2. Cake and meal feed: Cake and meal feed is generally called plant protein feed, including soybean cake (protein content 40-46%), peanut cake (protein content 45%), and sesame cake (protein content 40%).

3. Animals: Animal protein feed resources include fish meal, clams, snails and fly pupae.

4. Additives: Loach feed is added with amino acids, vitamins, inorganic salts, fatty acids, antibiotics, hormones, mildew inhibitors, disease prevention agents, antioxidants, attractants, adhesives, anti-floating agents and softeners, etc.

Loach is also known as loach, loach fish and true loach. It is a warm-water fish with strong adaptability. It often lives in freshwater such as rivers, rice fields, ponds, marshes, reservoirs and lakes. It often lives at the bottom of still water bodies and likes to burrow into the mud. Adult fish can not only breathe with gills, but also inhale air through the mouth and perform intestinal breathing. It is not easy to die after leaving the water.

Loach is an omnivorous fish. In natural waters, young fish with a body length of less than 5 cm mainly feed on zooplankton, such as rotifers and small crustaceans. When the body length reaches 8 cm, it begins to become omnivorous, feeding on algae, aquatic plants and organic debris in addition to aquatic insects and their larvae, chironomid larvae and earthworms. When the body length is more than 10 cm, it can feed on larger animals and plants, but mainly on plant feed.

Under artificial breeding conditions, in addition to fertilizer water, the fry stage can be fed with egg yolk, soybean milk and other powdered feeds, insects, water fleas and silkworms, etc. The fingerling stage is mainly fed with rice bran, bran, cakes, fish meal, silkworm pupa meal, blood meal and green feed, etc.; the adult stage is mainly fed with mixed feed made into balls of the above feeds and artificial compound feeds.

The feed formula for loach is as follows:

【Formula 1】（%）

Fish meal 10, blood meal 7, yeast powder 3, soybean cake powder 20, vegetable cake powder 10, wheat flour 50.

【Formula 2】（%）

Silkworm pupa powder 10, blood meal 7, yeast powder 3, chain bean cake powder 30, rice bran powder 10, wheat flour 40.

【Formula 3】（%)

Fish meal 15, blood meal 5, silkworm pupa powder 5, soybean cake powder 25, vegetable cake powder 30, wheat flour 20.
