Wild snails usually have a small range of activities. What do you see from it? It is as slow as a snail's crawling speed, which illustrates this point. To be exact, it has something to do with snails, but one is a landlubber and the other likes to take a bath. Since the snail crawls so slowly, it means that it won't worry about food shortage. What kind of food won't worry snails? There is only one possibility, that is, these foods can't run away. At best, they can't run even if they want to. The food with this characteristic can only be plants, which means that snails are mainly vegetarian, including all kinds of plankton, young aquatic plants and so on.

Of course, we can also prove it from another aspect. Are there many snails in the countryside now? As a relative and neighbor of snail, he is also a plant-based quality person. Some people may ask, why not eat meat? Think about it. Snails crawl so slowly. What meat can they eat? There are a lot of fish, but unfortunately they can't catch up.

1. Food source: Snails have a wide range of food sources. In nature, snails usually feed on young aquatic plants or plankton. Then the cultured snails can be fed with cow dung or chicken manure, which can promote the growth and reproduction of plankton or aquatic plants in the water, and finally indirectly provide more food sources for the growth of snails.

In addition, some vegetables or rotten fruits can be mashed and fed. Of course, most farmers still use wheat bran, soybean meal and corn flour as snail feed at the ratio of 6:3: 1. Its advantages are high content of protein in soybean flour, which can accelerate the growth. Snails, like other poultry feed, can be fed, but the price is relatively high and it also contains a lot of soybean meal.

Don't forget that leftover bean curd residue is also a good feed, and you can also feed it with some distiller's grains mixed with wheat bran or soybean meal.

Note: the feces of poultry or livestock must be fermented and decomposed to kill parasites inside, and then fed evenly.

2. Food consumption: There are three kinds of feeds that can be matched, namely fermented farmyard manure, and some forage and concentrate. The so-called concentrate is a high-protein feed mixed with feed or soybean meal.

For the first time, the amount of feed for snail breeding was a little more, mainly to improve the organic matter content and fertility of water. The proportion is 250 kg of fermented and decomposed farmyard manure, 200 kg of concentrated feed and 600 kg of forage per mu.

The daily concentrate consumption in the later stage is 65438 0% of the total seedling weight, and the farmyard manure is also 65438 0% of the initial seedling weight. After the snail gives birth, the amount of feed can be appropriately increased according to the actual situation.

Attachment: The stocking amount of snail seedlings per mu is between 200 kg and 400 kg, which must be remembered.
