Because snail culture does not need to feed a lot of bait, the cost of bait is also very low. Therefore, the net profit of snail culture is about 1000 yuan /667_, and the benefit is considerable.

Living Habits Snail likes to live in the water with warm winter and cool summer, soft bottom material, rich bait and fresh water quality, especially in the place with flowing water. Snail likes to live in the water environment with rich humus in sediment, such as lakes, ponds, fields or slow-flowing rivers and ditches with lush aquatic plants.

The method of distinguishing the female from the male in reproductive habits is mainly based on the shape of its right antenna. Oncomelania hupensis is an oviparous animal, and its reproductive mode is unique. The embryonic development and larval development of Oncomelania hupensis are completed in the mother. It takes about one year for a fertilized egg to produce a baby snail.

In general, the stocking of seed snails can be started in late March. Before the snail is released/0/0 day, the whole pond is sprayed with quicklime at a dosage of 50 kg-/0/00 kg per mu to remove wild fish, shrimp and other miscellaneous snails. After 3-4 days, the organic fertilizer and breeding bait organisms are piled up in the water body for the snail to eat.
