The following points should be noted in the self-breeding and self-raising techniques for snakes: 1. Seed selection: Every spring, healthy and plump female snakes should be selected as breeding snakes. Regardless of whether they are venomous or non-venomous, they generally lay eggs from late June to July. Before and after laying eggs, female snakes should be fed nutrient-rich food containing plenty of calcium, and they should be allowed to eat and drink their fill as much as possible. Whether the female snake has mated need not be considered; once a female snake mates, she can produce fertilized eggs for five years. 2. Incubation: To prevent the snake eggs from drying out and becoming sunken, the eggs laid should be promptly placed in an incubation jar for artificial incubation. Temperature must be maintained, and they should be checked and turned regularly.

Regardless of whether they are venomous or non-venomous, they generally lay eggs from late June to July. Before and after laying eggs, female snakes should be fed nutrient-rich food containing plenty of calcium, and they should be allowed to eat and drink their fill as much as possible. Whether the female snake has mated need not be considered; once a female snake mates, she can produce fertilized eggs for five years.

2. Incubation: To prevent the snake eggs from drying out and becoming sunken, the eggs laid should be promptly placed in an incubation jar for artificial incubation. Temperature must be maintained, and they should be checked and turned regularly to prevent rats and other animals from stealing and eating the snake eggs. Dead eggs should be removed promptly. Generally, baby snakes hatch in 40 to 60 days.

3. Feeding: Baby snakes begin to eat about 10 days after hatching. Food must be provided according to the snake's feeding habits, and they may be allowed to feed freely or be force-fed. During this stage, they must be fed well so that they grow large and strong as much as possible; otherwise, they will have difficulty surviving the winter. At the same time, attention should be paid to site hygiene and regular disinfection.

4. Hibernation: Controlling the temperature and humidity of the snake box during hibernation is the key to whether baby snakes can safely survive the winter. An electric light bulb or burning firewood can be used to raise the temperature to 15-18 degrees Celsius. Maintain humidity at 60%-80%. After surviving the winter, they can be fed according to routine practices.

Brief introduction to snake medicine:

Formula One: Mainly treats cobras, king cobras, banded kraits, many-banded kraits, etc. Mail order is 120 yuan per bottle. Shipped starting from two bottles. Instructions available upon request. Formula Two: Mainly treats hundred-pace snakes, vipers, ironhead pit vipers, green bamboo pit vipers, etc. Mail order is 130 yuan per packet. Shipped starting from two packets. Instructions available upon request.

Toxin-drawing and tissue-generating formula: For bites from venomous snakes such as cobras and hundred-pace snakes, localized ulceration, long-term non-healing wounds, and ulcers from fire and hot water burns, apply externally to the ulcerated area. If there is toxin, it draws out the toxin; if there is no toxin, it promotes tissue regeneration. The earlier the medication is used, the better. According to the condition of the injury, 1-3 treatment courses can cure it. The therapeutic effect is especially good, with no aftereffects. Each treatment course costs 800 yuan, sparing the pain of amputation.
