April, May. In the past, life in the countryside was difficult, and many adults and children would go to the fields to catch yellow eels. These wild yellow eels can not only improve their diet, but also exchange them for pocket money.
Although these wild yellow eels are more difficult to grasp, these wild yellow eels are unattended. Due to the abundant water and edible food in the farmland, the wild yellow eel is not only large in size, but also tender in flesh. Whether you sell yellow eels or keep them, it is a very good choice. <>
In the past, the ecological environment was very good, and the water in the farmland was very clean. Since the farmland will grow crops, there will be a variety of small animals in Longquan. These small animals are food for a wide variety of large animals.
Due to the good environment and abundant food, the yellow eel can not only grow very large, but also reproduce quickly. Even if the villagers catch a lot of wild eels, there will still be a lot of wild eels the next year. <>
Catching yellow eels used to be something that many children would do in their childhood, but with the improvement of living standards, people will choose to buy yellow eels in the market. Due to the development of related technologies, more and more people choose to raise yellow eels. But these eels grow very slowly.
In order to make the eels grow faster, the keepers will adopt the method of controlling the water temperature and feeding the food suitable for the growth of the eel. Although some results have been achieved, when the eels reach five months, they basically do not eat much. The largest of these eels weighs no more than a pound.
Compared to raised eels, wild eels can grow larger. <>
As the fertility of the land is declining year by year, many farmers use a lot of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Due to the use of large quantities of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, farmland is heavily polluted. Even if you can catch wild eels in the fields, they will only weigh a few or two.
For wild yellow eels, it is recommended to consume them with caution. Due to the contamination of farmland, wild yellow eels may have a lot of parasites.
and bacteria. People can get sick if consumed. Different people have different ways of eating eel. Yellow eels can not only be braised but also steamed or stewed. Generally speaking, the braised yellow eel meat is more fragrant, and the yellow eel soup is also very nourishing.
-
2-3 catties, as long as they do not meet natural enemies, or are caught and eaten, and grow under natural conditions, yellow eel can grow so big.
-
Wild yellow eels can grow to about 1 2 catties, mainly because this species has relatively high requirements for environment and nutrition.
-
About two catties, this should be judged according to the specific environment, the environment is different, and the size of the growth is also different.
-
Wild eels can often be seen in farmland, how big can these eels grow? Wild eels in rural fields generally grow to about 1 to 2 kilograms. Wild yellow eels also have high demands on the environment.
It grows faster in areas with abundant nutrients and good sanitation, and slower in places with poor environments. Wild yellow eels usually grow very slowly. In the former rural rice fields, the most common yellow eel was generally the size of chopsticks.
Even such large eels can grow for at least two years, and usually the largest wild eels grow in some fish ponds or lakes.
In rural areas, children do catch eels in the rice fields. Eels always like to go out and look for food at night. As soon as the flashlight comes on, you know that there are eels and there are no eels.
People love to catch eels. After catching an eel, you can improve your standard of living. But at that time, only two or three eels were wild animals that children could catch, and it was rare for eels to reach four taels.
By the sixth year, the growth rate of yellow eels will be slower and slower, which means that most of the things we see in the wild are yellow eels, and the largest ones are actually about half a kilogram. In the news, I saw an old farmer who caught a kilogram of eel, and there was similar news everywhere. In the wild, I can also see that eels can indeed grow up to 1 kilogram in areas with a suitable environment and rich nutrients.
Some old farmers even accidentally caught an eel weighing 3 or 5 kilograms, which I have not yet seen. Even if there is, it can be regarded as the essence of "eel". Ordinary people should not eat it, but they should collect it.
In short, I think it's crazy. Surprisingly, eels can grow up to half a kilogram. It should be a relatively large individual that can grow up to a kilogram.
Therefore, eels that generally grow in the wild weigh about 1-2 catties, which is already the best. However, there are fewer and fewer eels growing in the wild at present. Now people have begun to artificially breed large numbers of yellow eels.
Farmed eels grow relatively quickly, but from a meat quality point of view, they are certainly much worse than wild eels.
-
The yellow eels I know generally hatch in May and June every year, after the small yellow eels are hatched, the small yellow eels often grow 10 grams in the first year, and then they burrow into the mud for a long hibernation, even if the wild yellow eels that grow for two consecutive years, it can grow to 15-20 grams is already very good. However, the small yellow eel only officially began to grow rapidly in the third year, I have seen some yellow eels with a better growth environment, when they grow to 3 years, the weight has been able to reach about 2 taels, and the yellow eel that grows for four or five years can grow to half a catty, which is already the largest I have ever seen.
And it is said that when the yellow eel grows to the sixth year, the growth rate will become slower and slower, which means that most of the yellow eels we see in the wild are actually about half a catty.
-
About two kilograms, this should be determined according to the specific situation, different environments, the size of the length is also different.
-
This one is uncertain, it may grow to about three or four catties, and the size is uncertain.
-
If it grows to more than a pound, the most conservative estimate will take 7 years. If it is artificially cultivated, it may be faster and maybe three or four years, but the wild one is not so fast, after all, it also lives, and the environment is often more suitable for the growth of yellow eel, but the wild one needs to face layers of tests, and it will naturally take longer.
The main reason why yellow eels have such a long production period is that the emperor also needs to hibernate, so they basically do not grow in the cold season. The eel needs a growth temperature of about 15 to 30 degrees Celsius to be more active, and the growth period will also reach a certain peak. If the temperature begins to fall below 5, then the emperor will enter a dormant state, and will not come out to forage, and will stop growing, and the same will keep the energy consumption low, so as long as the emperor enters the state of hibernation, then he will lose weight, which is one of the reasons why it takes 7 years for the yellow eel to grow about a catty.
There is an experimental institution in Hubei Province that has done a test that shows that the growth rate of yellow eels surviving in the wild is actually not fast. In the first year, they mainly grow this length, about 24 centimeters long, and their weight is not particularly heavy, that is, about 10 grams. In the second year, they will continue to grow outwards and can reach about 33 centimeters, but in a year they will only gain about 7 grams.
In the third year, the length of the increase is only 7 centimeters, but in the third year the weight can reach 55 grams, which is 30 grams more than in the second year.
The reason why it takes 7 years, then it has a lot to do with his slow growth, although the yellow eel is more delicious, not picky eater, but it has a lot to do with its growth characteristics and climatic factors, and it is indeed quite rare to be able to meet more than one catty.
-
Normally, it takes about 10 years, the growth rate of yellow eel is very slow, only about 50 grams a year, and it is relatively rare to see more than one pound of yellow eel in daily life, and with age, its growth trend is slow, so it is more difficult.
-
It takes about 4 years to breed. Yellow eel in a better living environment, can grow about four taels a year, if you want to reach about one catty, you must breed for about 4 years.
-
It takes about 10 years to grow, and the growth rate of the eel is actually very slow, especially in the wild, which is 20% slower than the rate of farmed eel.
-
At present, the largest yellow eel can reach a length of meters and weigh 36 catties.
This animal is actually better than fish, although its body looks like a snake. Its length is 20-70 centimeters, its head is thick, its tail is very thin, and there is a layer of mucus on its body. As a tropical and warm temperate fish, it generally lives on the bottom and is relatively adaptable, mainly inhabiting areas such as rice paddies, lakes, ponds and rivers.
The body of the eel is slender and cylindrical, serpentine, with a body length of about 20 70 cm and a length of up to 1 meter. The anterior part of the body is rounded and posteriorly flattened, and the tip of the tail is thin. The head is swollen, long and rounded, and the cheeks are raised.
mouth large, terminal, snout short and flattened; The mouth is open at the end of the snout, obliquely lobed; The upper jaw is slightly protruding, and the lips are quite developed. There are fine teeth in the upper and lower jaws and on the oral cavity. The eyes are very small, hidden under the skin, covered by a thin skin.
Eel
The eel (Latin name: Monopterus albus), also known as the yellow eel, is a member of the genus Yellow Eel in the family Zygobranchidae, and is listed on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Least Concern (LC) species.
The eel is snake-like and cylindrical. The head is thick and the tail is thin, and the body surface has a smooth mucosal protective layer, and the color is yellowish-brown. It is found in southeastern Asia, China, western Korea, and southern Japan. It often lives on the bottom of silty water such as rice fields, rivers and ponds.

According to the experience of the older generation, it is generally believed that "yellow eels grow a pound in ten years", which means that most wild yellow eels are difficult to grow to 1 pound in their lifetime. But the captive-bred ones are another story.
Although the yellow eel is rich in nutrition, we still advise everyone to try to stop the wild eel to eat less wild eel, the yellow eel grows slowly, the heavier the yellow eel growth cycle is longer, the more parasites and bacteria in the body, it is inevitable that it will be dangerous because of unclean handling.
-
The growth rate of yellow eel is affected by a variety of factors such as variety, age, nutrition, health and ecological conditions, the general situation is that the growth of wild yellow eel under natural conditions is very slow, based on the experimental observation data and our observations, generally 5-6 months hatched small eel seedlings, grow to the end of the year (eat to November to stop), its individual weight is only 3-5 grams; By the end of the second year, it weighs only 10-20 grams; By the end of the third year, the body weight is 40-60 grams; By the end of the fourth year, weigh 100-200 grams; By the end of the fifth year, weigh 200-300 grams; By the end of the sixth year, weigh 250-350 grams; Yellow eels that are more than six years old grow quite slowly. Wild eels weighing 500 grams are generally over 12 years old and are extremely rare. The largest wild yellow eel recorded in China weighs about 3 kilograms.
According to our breeding practice, the use of excellent varieties and with scientific feeding methods, 5-6 months hatched eel seedlings to the end of the year, the growth of faster, a single weight of up to 30 50 grams, can be basically realized in the current year of breeding on the market, if the second year continues to breed, the individual weight can reach 150-250 grams, the third year can reach about 400 grams, more than 400 grams of growth is very slow.
Extended Information. It is a tropical and warm temperate fish. It is an adaptable demersal fish that survives in rivers, lakes, ditches, and rice paddies. During the day, I like to be in humus.
Drilling in the silt or in the cracks of the rocks where there is water on the shore. There is not much activity during the day, and at night they go out of the cave to forage for food. The gills are underdeveloped, and with the help of the epidermis of the inner wall of the mouth and throat as an auxiliary organ for breathing, they can breathe air directly; When the oxygen content in the water is poor, it can survive.
After coming out of the water, as long as it is kept **moist, it will not die within a few days. It is an omnivorous fish that feeds on a variety of small animals. It has a gluttonous nature and eats most vigorously in the summer.
It cannot eat for a long time during the cold season and does not die.
Pond culture is characterized by a small amount of water exchange, and there is soil at the bottom of the pond for eels to burrow or artificial settings for eels to inhabit. The location of the feeding pond should be leeward to the sun, with a good water source, the shape can be rectangular or oval, and the size depends on the scale of the feeding. Pool.
There are two types of structures: cement pool and earth pool. There are usually three kinds of cement pools: above-ground, underground and semi-underground, and the water temperature of the above-ground cement pool varies greatly with the season, which is not conducive to eel farming, and the underground and semi-underground types are more used.

How big is a pound of yellow eel burrow? I once saw a hole with the thickness of a hoe on the soil at the bottom of the rice field, but the catalpa did not dare to reach out to pick it, for fear that there was a water snake hidden inside, but the old people in the countryside said that the water snake only moved in the water, and its hole was not in the mud, and the large-diameter hole in the rice field was likely to be a large yellow eel of a certain age, which was six or seven taels at a light point and one or two catties at a heavy rate.
There is a kind of earthwork in the countryside, and it is said that the blood of the yellow eel is effective for facial paralysis, but the thorn catalpa does not know whether it is true or false. Yellow eels and loaches are different from ordinary fish, not to mention slippery bodies, and mainly live in thin mud, and only come out to move underwater at night when the weather is warmer. Because the yellow eel meat is delicious, high and in demand, it provides a way for rural people to find quick money.
In the past, many people relied on catching yellow eels as their daily expenses for their families, and even their children's books and tuition fees were counted on it. <>
1. Yellow eels weighing more than one pound are difficult to see.
There are three formal ways to catch eels: one is to catch them with bait like fishing, the other is to use tongs to clamp them at night, and the third is to use your fingers to pick them out of the hole. Of course, there are also people who secretly use unpermitted methods, such as burning electric batteries and administering medicine to the fields.
Before going out to catch yellow eel, they will hang a basket made of bamboo strips on their waists, and the yellow eels caught will be directly loaded into it without fear of slipping.
Because there is rice in the rice field on hot days, it is not suitable for picking yellow eels, so at night with a flashlight or a hat with a flashlight in front of it, and then make a clip out of bamboo, and use a knife to cut out the wavy teeth in front of the clip.
With a flashlight, yellow eels, loaches and small fish and shrimp can be seen at a glance in the water of the rice field, and if you are lucky, you can catch more than ten catties of pure wild yellow eels and loaches casually in one night. However, yellow eels are mostly finger thick, and there are not too many of them with half a catty, and those with more than one catty are rare. <>
After the rice and regenerated rice are harvested, the rice fields on the side of the catalpa are generally filled with water, and the yellow eels in the rice fields rarely come out to move, and if you want to catch the yellow eel, you need to stick your fingers along its burrow to pick and pick.
The size of the yellow eel can be judged according to the diameter of the cave, the yellow eel cave becomes smaller due to the slow movement and change of water pressure and bottom mud after the formation, so the yellow eel will generally be larger than the cave, the yellow eel in the cave with the thickness of an adult's finger is about seven or eight dollars, and the thickness of the thumb is about one or two, and the cave of a pound of yellow eel can be imagined. <>
Second, wild yellow eels grow slowly.
Due to the suitable growth environment, sufficient food, and the use of feed and medicine, the growth rate of the yellow eel cultivated by humans is fast, and the yellow eel grows in almost a few months. However, wild yellow eels are not as farmed as they grow quite slowly and are affected by the environment.
Similar to native chickens and pigs, yellow eels belong to the shelf stage before they are three or four heavy, and they grow quickly, after which their growth rate slows down. Under the ideal conditions of good growth environment, less pesticides and sufficient food, wild yellow eels can generally grow three or four taels a year. Although the yellow eel grows slowly in general, it can grow to one pound in four years in some special growth environments, and it takes at least seven or eight years to grow to one pound in ordinary environments.
Choose fields with good water quality, sufficient water, no pollution sources around, strong water retention capacity, convenient drainage and irrigation, and not flooded for shrimp farming in paddy fields, with an area of as little as a few acres, as many as dozens of acres or hundreds of acres. Along the inner side of the ridge of the paddy field to excavate the shrimp ditch, the ditch is 1 meter wide, 1 meter deep, the field area is larger, but also in the middle of the field to dig the field ditch, the field ditch is 1 meter wide, 0 meters deep5 meters, the area of shrimp ditch and field ditch accounts for about 20% of the total area of paddy field. >>>More
Remember, because my family is in the countryside. Wild sweet potatoes will be fragrant and sweet when roasted over a wood fire, and the nutrients of nature are all in it.
Wells that used to be everywhere are now rarely seen, and only a small number of wells still exist in rural areas, so is it better to have water in wells or tap water? I believe that many people will have this doubt, so I will give you an analysis below. >>>More
First of all, the extensive use of various pesticides and fertilizers. Second, some rivers and canals have dried up. Finally, excessive capture. It is the main reason for the large decrease in loaches and yellow eels.
It will be scooped out with a manure bucket, and then composted and used to fertilize the vegetable field, which is quite green and pollution-free.
