How to raise a good snail? How to feed a snail

It prefers to live in a dark and damp, loose and humus environment, and is diurnal and nocturnal, afraid of light and heat, and most afraid of direct sunlight. Extremely sensitive to the environment, when the humidity and temperature are not suitable, the snail will retract its body into the shell and secrete mucus to form a protective film to seal the shell mouth to overcome the interference of the adverse environment. When the environment is suitable, it will automatically dissolve the protective film and resume activities.

Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the influence of temperature and humidity in the breeding process. The suitable temperature is 16 30, the humidity is 60% 85%, the soil moisture is about 40%, the pH is 5 7, when the temperature is lower than 15 and higher than 35, it is dormant and stops growing and reproducing.

Snails that like moisture. I've raised it before, you prepare a box, put sand in it, spray it with water, and keep it moist. It is enough to put green cabbage leaves inside, preferably covered with plastic, but leave a ventilation opening, and at night, go home and open the plastic to breathe.

That's it, it's very easy to raise, I've raised a lot!

The feeding quantity of snails is larger, and the daily intake accounts for about 4%-5% of body weight. Generally speaking, the amount of each feeding should be higher than 4%, but not too much, and it is better to eat just before the next feeding. Feeding frequency is usually 1 feeding per day in the hot summer.

Spring and autumn 1 day-2 days 1 feeding. If there is no heating in winter, you can feed enough feed before hibernation, and then feed enough feed after hibernation, so that you can recover your strength as soon as possible and grow and develop in time. If you warm up in winter, you can grasp the number of feedings according to the temperature, usually 1 feeding every other day.

In the interior, a square with a height of about 25 centimeters and a size of 2 to 3 square meters is built with bricks, and the square is lined with pine trees with a thickness of more than 10 centimeters. First make a wooden box (about 25 cm high, the length depends on the need) and a shelf, put loose soil with a thickness of more than 10 cm in the box, and then put the box layer by layer on the shelf. This breeding method is simple and easy to implement, with low investment and safety.

It should be noted that: open doors and windows every day for ventilation; regulating temperature and soil moisture; Maintain soil cleanliness and indoor hygiene; The top of the box is covered with a breathable net to prevent snails from escaping.

In the container for snail farming, you can add some ordinary soil. Sprinkle a little water often to keep the environment cool and moist. Just put the vegetable leaves directly, and you think about how wild snails can have chopped leaves to eat.

In addition, it can also be fed with snail feed. Coconut clay, pine bark, calcium sand, moss, and earth can all be mixed together, remember to spray wet before use.

It is best to keep them in a humid environment, feed them with some fresh vegetables, and clean up the feces in time. If you want to be a pet, it's too much, if you want to eat it, it's too little, I have four and I can't take care of it, this snail saves all to eat, books are eaten, toothpicks are eaten, the feces are very large, very thick and difficult to clean, but cleaner than the snails on the side of the road, after all, it is to raise snails.

When feeding a snail, pay attention to the food and environment it eats.

When raising a snail, you can give it cucumbers, cabbage, sweet potatoes, grapes, mushrooms, rotten leaves, lettuce, etc., and clean up the food in advance to avoid pesticides. When raising snails, it is necessary to keep the temperature of the environment between 16 and 40 degrees, but the most suitable temperature for its survival is 25 degrees, and after it eats food, it is necessary to clean up the uneaten food to avoid deterioration and odor.

When raising snails, it is necessary to keep the humidity of the environment, the air humidity is about 85% and 90%, and do not let the snails blow to the wind, so as not to affect the humidity of the environment. To prevent the invasion of natural enemies, rodents and ants, spray with 1 1000 trichlorfon solution regularly, which can effectively kill the biggest natural enemy of snails - mites, and regularly use peracetic acid dilution to disinfect snail breeding sites and kill pathogenic microorganisms.

Characteristics of snails

If you put a snail in a glass (such as a snail found from a tree after rain), cover the rim with a piece of cardboard (you can put some water and leaves in the cup), and make a few small holes in the piece of cardboard to keep the air flowing, then those snails will climb on the piece of cardboard and leave the glass alone for a day.

On the second day, you will notice that there is some black unidentified object in the glass, which is snail droppings, and when you open the cardboard, you will find that the cardboard has been partially eaten. It is more active in well-ventilated conditions, otherwise it will be dormant most of the time. Crawling is very slow, stressful, does not encounter salt, has a habit of liking dark and damp places, and likes to eat green plants.
