The five-step snake has the habit of living alone, and should not be reared with other snakes of the same family, although it has the aggressiveness of feeding, but with the king snake is the enemy, the eyes of the snake has no fighting power, in practice, we can often see that the king snake is able to devour five-step snakes, even if the toxicity of the snake is very strong, and the king snake can obviously restrain the five-step snake's role, the five-step snake is only adapted to the mono-culture, the five-step snake, although the personality of the lazy, but after eating a little rest, it will start to move, but after eating a strong mobility, it must return to the original place of residence to digest the food again. The five-step snake is lazy, but after eating a little rest will begin to have some activity, but after eating the ability to move stronger, must return to the original place of residence and then digest the food, in the investigation and feeding found that the five-step snake is only adapted to the outdoor room outdoor way, coupled with the selection of the spouse of the conditions of the strict, not adapted to the room to raise the raising and the box raising.

Five-step snake management in four seasons:

One, spring management

before the sting should be the whole snake factory for comprehensive disinfection and sewage work, the water facilities should be strengthened to repair, to maintain no pollution, no damage to the utensils, feed to maintain adequate attention to observation, as long as you find that there are snakes out of the hibernation (in general, within three days can be the end of the hibernation), we must make good preparations for the feeding work. Work, feed first do not throw too big, too much, to gradually strengthen, in order to let the snake faster and better recovery of the body, must be added to help the growth of elements, the first title must let the snake drink enough water (i.e., appetizing soup + digestive), after the opening of the food, for the summer to make good preparation for the mating, close the nest, into the nest to carry out a comprehensive inventory work, to see whether there are dead and diseased snakes remaining in the nest.

Two, summer management

Summer season is generally a high rate of snake morbidity, but also the peak of mating snakes, such as mismanagement, will cause serious economic losses.

①To maintain the quietness of the snake, the staff to enter the snake factory, do not make a loud noise, on the storage of objects to exclude the big noise, so as not to affect the mating mood of the snake, shall not allow outsiders to enter and exit.

② found a snake mating mating records, generally 28 days snake began to spawn, to start checking, the eggs will be taken out of the storage storage, such as found in the snake to protect the eggs to be blown away by the snake to take the eggs.

③Prepare for hatching.

④To prevent the occurrence of snake diseases, the main vulnerable snake diseases are pneumonia, skin disease, stoppage of production, enteritis.

5 health prevention work, the snake factory generally after feeding to carry out sanitation cleaning

Remove, lest the rain washed away feces, contamination of the entire snake factory.

6 timely and good work to remove the water, to prevent the collapse phenomenon, the snake outside the escape, such as found to escape to timely notify the surrounding residents to take precautions, to prevent the cause of greater accidents

Third, the management of the autumn

Autumn is the golden season of growth of snakes, we must always observe the snake's movements, the appetite increased significantly, we must strengthen the fertilization and fostering of the child's strength, to ensure that before the hibernation of the physique protection.

①Snake eggs should not be stored, to be incubated.

②Strengthen the fertilization efforts, so that the snake body strong, ready for hibernation. ③ Strengthen the prevention of disease, easy to occur virus are: stomatitis, hepatobiliary inflammation, skin disease, production of leakage disease.

④Snake activity factory management repair work. Four, winter management

①Temperature management during hibernation. Five-step snake in hibernation temperature like low, generally controlled between 5-8 ℃.

②Humidity is generally 60%-70%.

③Prior to hibernation, we should do a good job of sanitation of the snake's nest, disinfection should be thorough. ④ Inspection work during hibernation. Inspection program, the plant to be a comprehensive search to see if there are snakes have not entered the nest, to find out the reasons for not entering the nest (the reasons are 2: 1, did not find the nest, 2, there is a disease), such as the nest is found too much to prevent pressure injuries that is, to be artificially separated, because of the five-step snake ferocious, so that after hibernation into the fixed for a comprehensive physical examination, elimination of the weak, diseased, handicapped, lack of, business, to stay enough seed snakes for the next year's reproduction for the preparation of a full.

⑤ Disinfection of the activity site, weed exclusion, you can use fresh lime to put tilling, and the facilities are replenished.

6 Do a good job of exterminating rats and mice to prevent them from eating snakes. (7) the factory floor for a comprehensive organization and maintenance work. ⑧ to make the next year's production planning. ⑨Regular inspections are conducted.

Checking principles: once a day at the beginning of sleep (designated a week), sleep in the middle (the second week) once every three days, sleep in the late stage (the third week to the hibernation before) once a week.

⑩Temperature and humidity should be strictly controlled, low temperature and make up for the temperature, low humidity and make up for the water.
