Problems solved by technology

Compared with other turtles, the flat-breasted turtle has unique ecological habits, and it is difficult to domesticate and reproduce artificially. At present, the artificial breeding of this species is still unsuccessful, there is no stable provenance, the development of artificial breeding is limited, and the market trade is completely dependent on very limited wild animals. resource
In addition, as a temperature-changing animal, the flat-breasted turtle is sensitive to temperature changes and has a hibernation period of 2 to 4 months per year. During this period, if it is not managed properly, it can directly lead to poor hibernation quality or even death, resulting in a higher disease rate. or mortality, especially for juveniles and juveniles
At present, there is no report on the safe overwintering method of the flat-breasted turtle under artificial breeding conditions

Embodiment 1

[0011] 10 days before the flat-breasted tortoise enters hibernation, select sand with a particle size of about 1-2mm and mix it with soil at a mass ratio of 1:1, and then disinfect it with a bleach solution with a mass fraction of 10-20%. The quality of the plastic bucket used for hibernation is Sterilize with potassium permanganate aqueous solution with a fraction of 1‰ for 15 to 30 minutes. After the silt and the plastic bucket are sterilized, spread the silt into the plastic bucket, the thickness of the silt layer is 5-20cm. Flat-breasted turtles should be handled with care to avoid shock and mechanical damage during fishing, disinfection and transportation. Before hibernation, measure the turtle's weight, carapace length, carapace width, body width, and body height, and record the health status. After the measurement, disinfect with potassium permanganate aqueous solution with a mass fraction of 1‰ for 15-30 minutes, put the turtle into the bucket and add 0.5-0.85g / m 3 E...

Embodiment 2

[0013] The present embodiment is basically the same as Embodiment 1, except that the thickness of the silt layer is 5cm, and what is added in the plastic bucket is to contain 0.85g / m 3 The water of EM bacteria agent, the depth of the water body is 5cm, and it is changed every 2 weeks, containing 0.85g / m 3 EM inoculant water. The health rate of the ratites treated by the method of this embodiment reaches more than 95%, and the survival rate reaches more than 98%.

Embodiment 3

[0015] The present embodiment is basically the same as Embodiment 1, except that the thickness of the silt layer is 20cm, and what is added in the plastic bucket is to contain 0.5g / m 3 The water of EM bacteria agent, the depth of the water body is 20cm, and it is changed every 7 days, containing 0.5g / m 3 EM inoculant water. The health rate of the ratites treated by the method of this embodiment reaches more than 95%, and the survival rate reaches more than 98%.

Abstract

The invention discloses an artificial safe survival method of platysternon megacephalum in winter, comprising the following steps of: paving disinfected mud-sand mixture in a disinfected container, with the mass ratio of the mud to sand in the mud-sand mixture to be 1: 1 and the thickness of the mud-sand layer to be 5-20 cm; disinfecting the platysternon megacephalum going to be in winter sleep with 0.1% of potassium permanganate solution for 15-30 min; putting the platysternon megacephalum on the mud-sand layer in the container; adding water containing 0.5-0.85 g / cu.m EM fungicide, with the depth of water to be 5-20 cm; putting the container in a dark and quite environment; keeping the temperature at 1-20 DEG C; and replacing the water containing 0.5-0.85 g / cu.m EM fungicide in each week in order to keep the water fresh until the winter sleep is over. The method is simple and easy in operation and has low cost and small investment. The healthy rate of the platysternon megacephalum treated by the method is more than 95%, and the yield is more than 98%; the method has obvious effect and lays the foundation for culturing artificial species groups; therefore, the method has good application prospective.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the field of animal breeding, and in particular relates to an artificial safe overwintering method for ratites. Background technique: [0002] Flat-breasted turtle (Platysternon megacephalum) is a rare and endangered economic animal native to Asia. It has high economic value and broad market prospects. It inhabits rocky mountains and streams and has hibernation habits. Compared with other turtles, the flat-breasted turtle has unique ecological habits, and it is difficult to domesticate and breed artificially. At present, the artificial breeding of this species is still unsuccessful, there is no stable provenance, the development of artificial breeding is limited, and the market trade is completely dependent on very limited wild animals. resource. In addition, as a temperature-changing animal, the flat-breasted turtle is sensitive to temperature changes and has a hibernation period of 2 to 4 months per year. During this period...
