1. Eel feed selection: eels like to eat active bait, and animal feed is the first choice. Whether it is feeding eels in the field or raising eels in home gardens or rice fields, you can choose small fish, snails, tadpoles and The larvae of some animals are given to them to eat. In order to ensure sufficient food for eels, we can carry out three-dimensional reproduction of fish, tadpoles, snails and eels, but pay attention to the quantity and density. When placing fry, be careful not to be too messy and maintain the purity of the fry.
2. Eel insect feed: When feeding eel, we can also help the eel attract insects. Some melons, beans or vegetables can be planted next to the eel pond, mainly to attract the arrival of insects, which can be eaten by the eels themselves, or the insects can fall into the water and become delicacies of the eels. At night, place lights around the plants to illuminate them and attract insects. You can also use solar insecticidal lamps to kill insects. These moths, mosquitoes, flies and other eels can all be eaten.
3. How to deliver food to eels: From July to October when the temperature is suitable, when the water temperature is 20 to 26 degrees, this time is most conducive to the growth of eels. When feeding eels, you only need to feed them once in winter and spring, in the evening or in the morning. In summer, because this is the peak season for eels to feed, it is also the time when eels grow. , at this time, you can feed the eel more, and it is more appropriate to feed it 2 to 3 times.
4. Follow-up observation of eel feeding: When you start delivering food, you can provide less food. To see how sensitive the eel is to such food, timely patrols of the pond should be carried out to know the activity level of the eel. After the food is delivered, the eel's diet should be fished out in time when patrolling the pond in the morning and evening. In order to facilitate the delivery of eel bait, a feeding platform can be set up and a simple wooden box and wire can be used. There is a feeding table through which remaining and corroded food can be easily put out.
5. Matters needing attention when placing eel seedlings in the pond for feeding: When placing eel seedlings, pay attention to density and temperature. The time for placing eel seedlings is about 10 days after the pond is fertilized. The time for placing eel seedlings is on a sunny day. In the morning or evening, you need to observe the eel's diet. Some water earthworms, mosquitoes and maggots can be placed. These eel fry can be placed on the bait table first, so that the eels can have a conditioned reflex to eat, and gradually develop a good habit of collecting food at fixed points.
