Detailed Explanation of Key Points of Artificial Soft-Shelled Turtle Farming Techniques
The soft-shelled turtle, also called tuan yu, turtle, water fish, etc., is not only a delicious delicacy but also a kind of Chinese medicinal material. So, what artificial farming techniques are there for soft-shelled turtles? 1. Building ponds. The soft-shelled turtle is an egg-laying animal that lives in water. It mostly inhabits cool places at the bottom of the water and has certain requirements for the farming environment. It is afraid of wind, fright, and dirt and disorder, so when building sturdy farming ponds, choose an area that is sheltered from the wind, faces the sun, is close to a water source, and has convenient drainage and irrigation, and is far from roads to avoid the fright caused by horn sounds. The size of the pond depends on the farming scale. Inside the pond, stones and cement should be used to build a slope to make it convenient for the soft-shelled turtle to crawl. A layer of fine sand should also be spread on the bottom and edges of the pond, and places for activity and egg laying should be set up. Wire mesh should be built around the farming pond to prevent the soft-shelled turtles from escaping. If conditions permit, farming can be divided by pond, raising parent soft-shelled turtles, young soft-shelled turtles, and adult soft-shelled turtles separately for convenient management.
