Comprehensive Breeding Method of Yellow Marginal Box Turtle from Hatchling to Adult

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for comprehensively culturing cistoclemmys flavomarginata by incubating from breeder to adult. The method comprises the following steps: 1) breeder, namely a, breeder identification; b, breeder raising; c, breeder mating; and d, spawning and inoculation; 2) infants, namely a, infant early raising; b, infant later raising; and c, infant overwintering; 3) young turtles, namely a, stocking; b, diet feeding; c, daily management; and d, young turtle overwintering; and 4) adults, namely a, stocking; b, diet feeding; c, daily management; and d, adult overwintering. The culturing method can be used for increasing the survival rate of cistoclemmys flavomarginata to 90 percent so as to greatly reduce the death rate in infant period and young turtle period, and carrying out comprehensive culturing from the source, and has the advantages of high breeder mating efficiency, high fertilized ovum quality, scientific management, high adult quality, high ornamental value and high medicinal value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of turtle breeding, in particular to a comprehensive breeding method for yellow-margined box turtles from hatching to adult turtles. Background technique [0002] The yellow-margined box turtle, scientific name Cistoclemmys flavomarginata, also known as the broken plate turtle and the snake turtle, is mainly distributed in the central and southern parts of my country. The yellow-margined box turtle is a rare and endangered species. It is a treasure among turtles and has medicinal value. It has high nutritional value and is used as the main raw material to be compatible with traditional Chinese medicine. It can not only fight cancer and detoxify without any side effects, but also nourish yin and strengthen yang and prolong life. The box turtle is rich in protein, fatty acid, colloid, muscle liver, etc., and the bone marrow contains hematopoietic cells and various trace elements necessary for the human body; I...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The breeding time of yellow-margined box turtles is long, and its existing breeding survival rate is low, generally only about 50%. Yellow-margined box turtles are generally in the juvenile turtle stage or the juvenile turtle breeding period due to improper breeding management. Cause the resistance to deteriorate, thereby increasing the mortality rate; secondly, in order to shorten the cycle, reduce the difficulty of raising and cost in the breeding process of the existing yellow-margined box turtles, they all use purchased turtle eggs to hatch directly, but this This breeding method makes it impossible for breeders to know the quality of turtle eggs fundamentally. They can only know the quality of turtle eggs after the hatching is over. There are certain risks in the later series of hatching and breeding of turtle eggs purchased. Mating and laying eggs of parent turtles is the basis and key to the breeding of yellow-margined box turtles, and scientific management during the breeding period of juvenile and juvenile turtles is the key to the survival of yellow-margined box turtles. The management of the three stages is related to the growth of related to the environment and feeding methods
