Artificial breeding method for Chinemys reevesii-Ocadia sinensis hybrid turtles

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of breeding of hybrid turtles, in particular to an artificial breeding method of Chinemys reevesii-Ocadia sinensis hybrid turtles. The method comprises the steps of selection and breeding of parent turtles, collection of turtle eggs, artificial incubation, baby turtle breeding and young turtle feeding. In a breeding season, vermiculite serving as an incubation medium is paved at the bottom of an incubator by 3-6 centimeters; fertilized eggs are placed into the incubator at the intervals of 0.3-0.9 centimeter; a vermiculite layer of 2-4 centimeters is covered; and at an incubation period, the humidity of the vermiculite is kept at 20-25 percent. The room temperature in during incubation is controlled at 28-33 DEG C; and baby turtles are incubated 55-63 days later. Compared with other incubation media, the vermiculite has the advantages that heat preservation, moisture preservation and permeability are facilitated; the incubation condition and facility are improved; the incubation success rate of the Chinemys reevesii-Ocadia sinensis hybrid turtles is increased; and the physique of the baby turtles is enhanced. The artificial breeding method is suitable for greenhouse large-scale artificial breeding of the Chinemys reevesii-Ocadia sinensis hybrid turtles.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of reproduction, and in particular relates to a method for artificial breeding of crow-flower hybrid turtles. Background technique [0002] Chinese tortoise (Chinemys reevesii), commonly known as tortoise, mud turtle, and tortoise, belongs to the order Testudinate, family Emydidae, and the genus Turtle; , Taiwan tortoise, belongs to the genus Huagui. Except for the northeast and west regions, the Chinese tortoise is distributed all over my country, while abroad it is mainly distributed in Japan and Korea. The Chinese flower tortoise is mainly distributed in southern my country, Taiwan and northern Vietnam. Both are excellent varieties of turtles, rich in nutritional value, and have high ornamental and medicinal values. [0003] Hybrid turtles are purely accidental. In the daily breeding process, due to various factors such as turtle escape, two or more species are mixed and hybridized to produce offsprin...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

At present, the incubation medium has low permeability, and the humidity is not easy to control, and the hatching rate is not high.

At present, the large-scale breeding of the black-flowered tortoise is relatively low, the hatching conditions are unreasonable, and the supporting facilities are low, resulting in a low hatching rate and a low survival rate.
