Bionic breeding method of platysternon megacephalum

Abstract

The invention discloses a bionic breeding method of platysternon megacephalum. By establishing the bionic breeding environment of the platysternon megacephalum, the environment completely considers the influence on physiology and behavior of the platysternon megacephalum caused by environmental hidden conditions, territoriality of platysternon megacephalum, vegetation, light, water temperature, water quality, human activity interference and other environmental conditions. In the environment, the platysternon megacephalum is bred in groups; therefore, the disability accident caused by biting is obviously reduced (by 70%), the death rate (the annual death rate is less than 10%) and the sick rate (the incidence of skin disease is reduced by 80%) of the platysternon megacephalum are greatly reduced, the breeding efficiency of the platysternon megacephalum is improved, the smooth breeding and mating are realized, and the taming difficulty of the platysternon megacephalum is efficiently solved; and the method has low investment and low cost, realizes artificial breeding of the platysternon megacephalum and is beneficial to the promotion of the artificial taming of the platysternon megacephalum.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the field of animal breeding, and in particular relates to an ecologically imitative breeding method for ratites. Background technique: [0002] The flat-breasted turtle (Platysternon megacephalum) is a rare economic animal native to Asia. It inhabits rocky mountains and streams. Because of its unique ecological habits, it has poor adaptability to artificial environments, and it is difficult to domesticate and reproduce artificially. At present, flat-breasted turtles are cultured mainly in single buckets (tanks) or in groups in pools. Under the condition of monoculture, it is impossible to realize mating and reproduction. Under the condition of group breeding, it is easy to cause disability and infection due to mutual biting, the mortality rate is high, and mating and reproduction are difficult. The shortcomings of the existing breeding methods: (1) the need for concealment conditions is not considered, and the ratites are of...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Under the condition of single breeding, mating and reproduction cannot be realized, and under the condition of group breeding, it is easy to cause disability and infection due to mutual biting, the mortality rate is high, and the mating and reproduction are difficult

The shortcomings of the existing breeding methods: (1) the need for concealment conditions is not considered, and the ratites are often hidden in stone caves under natural conditions; (2) the territoriality of the ratites is not considered, and the territoriality leads to mutual Bite; (3) did not take into account the microbial community and water quality of the breeding water environment; (4) did not take into account the corresponding environmental conditions such as vegetation, light, water temperature, etc., which have an important impact on the physiology and behavior of turtles; (5) ) did not consider the impact of human disturbance on turtles
