Keeping snails at the expense of stocking densities
Snails need to be fed once a day. The young snails can be fed once for two days or three days, especially for labor and materials. Many farmers mistakenly believe that keeping snails is more economical than raising other animals. Therefore, in addition to feeding the feed routinely and paying a little attention to the ambient temperature and humidity, the critical stocking densities are often ignored. Under normal circumstances, the snail's reproduction speed is very fast, but many farmers have small snails or small fields. They have more snail eggs and are reluctant to throw them away. So no matter how many snails are born, they grow up. Keeping snails is not long. In fact, after the small snail has been shelled for more than 10 days and reached a weight of more than 20 grams, it should be fed three or four times in a box. When a snail reaches a certain weight, it can be sold or sold, so as to make room for the remaining smaller snails to grow, so that the snails can be exempted from long-term eating due to long-term congestion. Most farmers do not earn money for the first year. The main reason for this is not because there is not enough feed or nutrition like protein, but because the stocking density is too high, resulting in a long snail feeding cycle. This is similar to raising silkworms, but also pay attention to "relying on foods," but it is different from raising silkworms. Although the silkworm's stocking density is too high due to the restriction of the size of the silkworm room, the silkworm body is weak, but the silkworm is still able to scrunch on time and scab up the mountain. The consequence is that the resulting pods are small and thin, and their impact is only low yield and low price. Little effect on the feeding cycle. While snails are sold on an individual basis, high stocking densities not only significantly lengthen the feeding cycle, but also result in small snails that cannot be sold. In general, indoor three-dimensional culture into a snail 350 per square meter, outdoor field cultivation of snails per mu of about 30,000 is more appropriate.
