Self-made snake feed formula

Snakes are generally aggressive animals, but because of their delicious meat and high nutritional value, more and more people breed snakes in recent years, so how to make a formula for snake feed?

I. the living habits of snakes

The snake is a kind of temperature-changing animal whose body temperature changes with air temperature, because the snake itself does not have a perfect body temperature regulation mechanism to produce and maintain a constant body temperature.

The most suitable temperature for snake activity is 20-30 ℃. When it exceeds 35 ℃, it will become anorexic, get sick, and die quickly over 40-45 ℃.

Air humidity also has a great impact on snakes, generally 50% to 70% is appropriate. Too high is easy to suffer from mildew, pneumonia, etc., and the mortality rate is higher in the south; too low (such as the northern spring drought) is not conducive to molting (especially pregnant snakes) due to rapid evaporation of water, affecting its continued growth and even causing death.

Snakes usually mate in early spring and early summer, lay eggs and hatch in summer, otherwise young snakes don't have enough time to accumulate enough fat to hibernate. The mortality rate of baby snakes born after September is as high as 50%.

Second, self-made snake feed formula

There are many recipes for self-made snake feed:

1. Sausages can be made of crude fiber, chicken, crude protein, mineral salts and multivitamins in a certain proportion.

Cut it into small pieces when feeding, and coat it with egg white or crushed frog juice to induce the young snakes to feed, which can be filled and fed to the young snakes, and then gradually trained to feed automatically.
