Artificial turtle rearing technology

The money turtle is also known as a broken plate turtle and a three-lined shell turtle. Now we introduce aquaculture technology as follows:
1 Site Selection Chichi Pond should be constructed with fresh water, plenty of light, a secluded environment, and a place surrounded by trees. The site should have good water retention properties, preferably neutral soil or slightly alkaline soil. Turtle pool with earthen, brick or concrete pool can be.

Adult turtle ponds are built with brick walls, with 0.4 meters of soil in the foot and 0.5 meters high. The roof is covered with a mud net to prevent escape and predator damage. Turtle pond should be built like a pot bottom, tilted inward to form a shallow beach, shallow beach can be piled up on the shoal for adult turtles to lay eggs and hatch. Generally, the area of ​​each pond is 50-60 square meters, and the depth of the bottom of the pool is 40-60 centimeters. The water lilies and water hyacinths are stocked in the pond and are used for concealed shading or summer precipitation. If you use a concrete pool to keep the pool water from being too deep, proper caves and land should be provided for turtle habitat and shelter.

The young battery turtle pond should be built indoors, with a depth of 30 cm, depth of 7-10 cm, and 2/3 of the bottom of the pool. A platform is built outside the pool for hatchling activity, feeding, and inhabitation. The platform is located close to the water and should be set to a 30 degree slope. The size of the pool is determined by the number of stocking 20-30/square meter. In order to facilitate the drainage of water, the pool should be set up to drain water. But do a good job of preventing escape.

2 turtle species to choose to reach sexual maturity money turtle, male turtle shell longer, square, flat carapace, plastron near the transverse line is relatively concave, thick tail, genitalia anus plate farther. The female turtle has a shorter shell than a round one, with a prominent carapace, a relatively smooth plastron, a small tail, and a cloaca close to the anus. When the money turtle matures, it usually weighs more than 0.5kg. When selecting a turtle species, the individuals selected were hypertrophied, robust, and free of injuries, and the body weight was above 1 kg. The male to female ratio is 1:2.

3 Artificial hatching Since the natural hatching of the money turtle is not ideal, artificial hatching can be used to increase the hatching rate. The turtle eggs are hatched in an incubator. The incubation box is 60-80 cm long, 15-20 cm wide and 8-10 cm high. First, put a layer of fine sand on the bottom of the box, then lay a layer of tortoise on the fine sand, and then spread a layer of fine sand on the eggs. The temperature of the incubator chamber should be controlled at 24-28°C, and be done regularly. Watering and maintaining the relative humidity inside the box, after 9-10 weeks, the young hatchlings can be hatched and the hatching rate is 75%-80%.

4 The hatchlings cultivate normally hatched hatchlings and are best kept in a small turtle pool for short-term cultivation. Because the shell of the baby turtle is relatively soft, it cannot be touched by hands or other hard objects. It is best to use a row of pens to drive it slightly. When it is half a day or two to hatch, you can start feeding some cooked egg yolks. After one week, gradually feed the animal baits such as leeches, clams, snails, etc., and feed 2%-3% of the body weight every day. . With the growth and development of young turtles, gradually increase the amount of feeding. Within 1 week of the first-born little money beetle, the pool may not be drained, soaked in water with a sponge and placed in a pool of young turtles for hatchling activities. After 1 week, the water can be put into the pool, and the depth of the water can be enough to flood the turtle's back. Change the water once every 1-2 days. After 4 weeks of age, you can feed lean pork, beef, small fish, shrimp, and bananas. When it is gradually raised to 150 grams, it can be transferred into adult turtle ponds for feeding.

5 adult turtles to cultivate turtle feed can be fed yellow mealworms, aseptic fly, small fish, snails, snails, shells, aquatic insects, livestock and poultry liver, turtles and so on. If animal feed is lacking, plant feeds such as pumpkins, potatoes, watermelon rinds, banana peels, etc. can be fed, but all food must be chopped and fed. In the season when the temperature is not high, it can be fed at 7-8 a.m., and during the summer season, it can be put in at around 5 p.m. The amount of food to be added and decreased according to the amount of turtle food intake, as appropriate, generally 10% -30% of the total weight, the amount of feed to eat all the degree. Feeding also needs to be “four sets”, namely: positioning, timing, quantification, and quality determination. In the process of cultivating adult turtles, it is necessary to ensure that the water quality of turtle ponds is refreshing and fresh, and there is ample amount of dissolved oxygen in pool water. The transparency of pool water is more than 35 cm. In particular, turtle ponds made of cement are susceptible to deterioration and require regular replacement. The water level in the spring should not be too deep. Lighter water will help increase the temperature of the water body. Summer water level should be deepened to achieve the purpose of reducing temperature. Daily cleaning of the food table should be done, and the remaining food should be cleaned to prevent the spread of germs. In addition, we must also prevent and control enemy enemies. Since ants and rodents are the natural enemies of turtle eggs and hatchlings, we must strengthen prevention and elimination.

6 Disease Prevention and Control

6.1 The pathogens of waterborne viruses are parasitic on the neck, abdomen and extremities of the money turtle, and the epidermis of the parasite is necrotic, with gray-yellow cotton-like spiculations of dirt and dirt. In particular, the turtle is susceptible to the disease. 3ppm-10ppm malachite green solution can be used after the onset of the disease; can also be mixed in the feed amount of antibiotics or sulfa drugs fed.

6.2 Humicola can cause skin necrosis on the neck and extremities of money turtles with white or yellow spots, severe epidermal tissue ulceration, and even naked neck muscles, skeletal muscles of the extremities, paws falling off, and finally death. After the onset of illness, they are rapidly isolated and rubbed with oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline, and chloramphenicol in the affected area of ​​the turtle; they can also be injected with 152-200,000 international units per kg of intragastrically administered turtle; or with 0.4-0.5 ppm of furazolidone. Disinfect the pool.

6.3 Swollen neck disease In the early stages of the onset of the turtle, the neck and throat are swollen, red spots appear in the abdomen, the neck is stiff and stiff, the eyes are white, no food, climb to the edge of the pool, and the edge of the turtle body swells until the body swells, eventually stretching the neck. Died. The disease is contagious and the mortality rate is high. If you find the disease, you should quickly isolate the diseased turtle. Use 1ppm trichlorfon or 10ppm potassium permanganate to dip for 10-15 minutes.

6.4 Bell disease This disease is caused by the adhesion of bell-shaped insects causing tissue ulceration, and white cilia appear on the neck, back, feet, and tail. The diseased turtle's appetite decreased or was deprived of food. The action was slow, and the body gradually became weak and eventually died of ulceration. Can be dip with 8ppm potassium sulfate or 20ppm potassium permanganate solution. Every 25-30 minutes, once a day, for 7 days.

6.5 Fat Metabolism Due to overfeeding and rotted high-fat diets, it causes liver and kidney chronic functional intoxication and metabolic disorders. The rust on the diseased turtle's plastron appeared with grayish-green markings, swelling of the neck and limbs, finger pressure, inflexibility, inconvenience of movement, and finally death. When suffering from this disease, it is necessary to change to fresh live food and bait, and appropriate amounts of VC, VB, and VE are mixed to restore their health.

6.6 Water Poisoning Because turtle pond water does not flow for a long period of time or there is residual food and fecal decay, toxic substances are produced, causing poisoning of the turtle, causing swelling of the abdomen and limbs, and poor appetite. If you suffer from this disease, you must pay attention to the rotation of the new water, which can be disinfected with quicklime.
