Site construction:
1, seed frog pool: the area of 4 to 10 square meters is generally appropriate, the pool height of 0.8 meters, the depth of water in the pool of 0.1 to 0.15 meters, the ratio of land and water in the pool is 3:1, and there is a perched cairn, the bottom of the pool is paved with a larger pebble, the light is dark and humidity is maintained at 80% to create an ideal ecological environment for stone frogs to live in. The ecological environment in which the stone frogs live promotes their growth and development, thus increasing the spawning rate and fertilization rate.
2, hatching pool: area of 1 square meters, pool height of 0.5 meters, water depth of 15 to 20 cm, water quality is fresh, pH 6 to 8, and contains sufficient oxygen can be. Can also be replaced by a large long oval basin.
3, tadpole pool: area of 3 to 8 square meters, pool height of 0.8 meters, water depth of 3 to 10 centimeters, pH 6 to 7, water and land ratio of 2:1, need to be shaded to raise a group of tadpoles of the same size in each pool is good.
4, young frog pool: area of 4-6 square meters, pool height of 0.8 meters, the depth of water is generally 10-15 centimeters, water and land ratio of 2:1, the pool laid 3-5 cm of small stones, built stone cave, water quality, pH 6-7.5.
5, other requirements: stone frogs of all types of frog pools pool shape is good to the rectangular pool, the bottom of the pool is slightly tilted, the drainage holes in the lowest so that the water can be thoroughly drained, the water surface is set up in the pool, the water surface of the water is good for the frog. Drainage holes at the lowest point so that the pool water can be thoroughly drained, the pool is set up with water surface, land, stone caves, food platforms and other things, the pool is set up with a net cover to prevent frogs from jumping and escaping, and enemy organisms, the water intake pipe is installed in the pool on the upper side, close to the lower part of the net cover, the newly constructed pool can not be used immediately, disinfected with disinfectant (to remove the alkaline), and dipped and washed with water for many times, before frogs are allowed to be raised.
Farming technology:
1, seed frog selection: choose the seed frog is the basis for good artificial reproduction, after hibernation, spring before the breeding of adult frogs for a comprehensive examination of the classification, selection of individual larger, robust, smooth skin, good development, no disability, no damage, to reach the sexual maturity of the frogs to stay as a seed.
2. Cultivation of breeding frogs: The frogs selected for breeding should be fed before hibernation, so as to make them fat and strong, and should be fed in winter when the temperature reaches 12℃ or above, so as to minimize the consumption of energy in the body in winter, and to maintain the growth of the stone frogs and the good development of the gonads.
3, mating spawning: stone frogs usually in April, mating female to male ratio of 1:1, stocking density of 15-20 per square meter of the seed frog pool, the seed frogs are usually held after 9:00 p.m. at night, the mating females ovulate in the early morning at 4-7:00 a.m., generally each spawn 300-500, the output of the eggs within one hour as far as possible, do not stir, so as not to break the egg mass, reducing the hatchability rate of the species of frogs. Avoid interfering when breeding and spawning.
4, artificial incubation: stone frog fertilized eggs begin to develop to the tadpole hatching stage is very sensitive to external changes, the whole incubation process should be done at a suitable temperature, no pollution of water quality, frog eggs disinfection, incubator oxygen and other technical requirements.
5, tadpole rearing: stone frogs in artificial rearing conditions, the mother frog spawns eggs, the eggs can hatch out tadpoles by artificial incubation for 10-15 days, tadpoles usually adsorbed on the bottom of the pool and the egg membrane after hatching, seldom move, and do not forage for food, after three days, the activity increases, and begin to forage for food.
