Black-necked black turtle
We know that turtles have the habit of overwintering, and their growth rate during the winter is related to It is much slower, and this has a great effect on the economic efficiency of the breeders, so they came up with a way to deal with this problem by not letting the black-necked turtles survive the winter. So how to prevent black-necked turtles from hibernating? Let’s find out together.
The most suitable temperature for artificial breeding of black-necked tortoises is around 25-30℃. If the temperature drops below 14°C, the turtle will stop eating or drinking, stop growing, and enter a state of hibernation. Therefore, if you can use heating methods to raise turtles in winter, you can prevent turtles from hibernating and promote the growth of black-necked tortoises.
How to warm the water in the turtle pond? There are three main ways:
First, use hot springs or waste boiled water from thermal power plants for heating. Hot spring water contains sodium, potassium, bicarbonate and a variety of trace elements, which is good for the growth of turtles. Mix the hot spring water and adjust the water temperature to 30°C before raising turtles. The turtles will not hibernate in winter. The weight of 6-month-old hatchlings can reach 100 grams, and the weight of 12-month-old turtles can reach 800-1000 grams. If hot springs are not available, waste boiled water from thermal power plants can also be used.
The second is to use solar energy for heating. Such as airtight solar water heaters, circulating solar water heaters and vibrating solar water heaters, etc., and then equipped with heating and cooling air conditioning equipment to keep the water temperature of the turtle pond around 30°C in winter. In this way, when 20-25 hatchlings are raised per square meter, after 6-7 months, the weight can reach about 130 grams. Then, 6 hatchlings per square meter are raised, and after another 10-15 months, the weight will reach about 130 grams. The weight can only be more than 500 grams, and the largest can reach 1000 grams.
The third is to use electricity, oil or gas for heating. A double-layer hot-pot greenhouse or steam direct cross-heating steam boiler heating device can be used to keep the water temperature of the turtle pond at about 30°C. If the stocking density is about 13 turtles per square meter, after one year of breeding, only a total of This can reach the specifications of commercial turtles of 500 grams.
Among the three heating methods for raising turtles in winter, the first one is the best, because it uses hot springs or waste boiled water from thermal power plants to heat the water in the turtle pond. The method is simple and easy to control. The money is cheap and the effect is obvious. Where conditions permit, consideration should be given to adoption first.
