How to raise Monopterus Albus in winter

The eel meat is tender and delicious, which is deeply liked by consumers. The price of eel listed in spring is relatively high, but before that, eel needs to survive winter. How to raise eel in winter has always been a concern of many farmers. Let's find out together today.

How do you feed rice field eel in winter?

1) Prepare for winter. By controlling eel's diet and feeding scientifically, eel can have a good body, strong activity ability and healthy constitution, thus creating conditions for eel to survive winter safely.

Monopterus albus likes to eat fresh food. We can feed them with protein and fat, such as earthworms. Fresh fish, etc., at the same time gradually increase the number of feeding times, and each time the amount of feed must be sufficient.

According to the breeding scale, the fresh meat is stirred by a meat stirring machine, mixed with compound feed and fed down.

2. The finless eel cultured in the cage has no soil inside and is ventilated like a house on all sides. In winter, it has nowhere to hide and cannot withstand the cold. Therefore, the cage needs water grass. The long and good water grass protects the finless eel from freezing in winter like a quilt. You can choose aquatic flowers,

The growth of aquatic plants and eel is complementary, eel long good this aquatic plants can grow well.

3, in winter, eel will also be dormant, so eel can only rely on the degradation of the gills and skin to breathe oxygen in the water, if the water quality is not good or lack of oxygen in the water, there will be death, so in winter must support better water quality, often inject new water to maintain a higher water level.

4. If it is a eel raised in an earthen pond, the eel will stop feeding when it cools down in winter and begin to hibernate 20 cm-40 cm below the mud. At this time, we should do a good job of winter protection. The main method is to drain the pool water and keep the soil moist and clean at all times. Rainy days to do a good job of drainage work, not to make pool water, etc. During hibernation, eel pond can not walk freely or pile up heavy objects, so as not to compact underground channels, resulting in ventilation blockage, affecting eel breathing.

As long as they are well prepared for wintering, most eel can survive the winter smoothly and sell for a good price in the spring of next year.
