How much does it cost to raise scorpions?

Scorpions are arachnids. Typical features include long, thin bodies, stings, curved segments and stinging tails. The earliest scorpions on land appeared in the Hilurian period about 430 million years ago. It is not only a valuable medicine, but also can make high-grade dishes. The market demand is increasing. Let's take a look at how much it takes to raise scorpions.

How much does it cost to raise scorpions?

1, fuel: currently used fuel is sawdust, the temperature is about 35 degrees, a barrel can burn more than 3 days in summer, 1-2 days in winter, heating more than 60 square meters. According to the average of 2 days, 178 barrels a year, the price of each barrel is about 10 yuan. That is, the fuel cost is 1780 yuan per 60 square meters.

2. Feed: the cost of artificial breeding is about 3 yuan per jin. At about 35 degrees, 1000 adult scorpions eat 0.1 jin of bugs every day.

3. Scorpion room: scorpion room is mainly spent on heat preservation, scorpion pond and scorpion nest are only material expenses. Foam board can be used for thermal insulation, the density is 16 kg / cubic meter, the price is 280 yuan / cubic meter, the surrounding walls and roof are needed, the thickness is 3 centimeters, and the price is calculated according to the area of one's own room.

4. Scorpion Pool: the material is cement sand, floor tile, furnace bladder and glass. Each scorpion tower needs 3 to 4 floor tiles, 80cm, and the price is about 14 yuan each. The width of the glass is 15 cm and the length is random, according to the size of the scorpion pool. The furnace gallbladder is 3 yuan per unit, using 5 yuan and 7 pieces. The material cost of each scorpion tower is less than 100yuan, and each scorpion tower suggests that the number of novice breeding is 3000 scorpions.

5. Scorpion: 1000 pieces, 750females, 250m, totaling 5000 yuan.

Breeding profit of scorpion

A female scorpion gives birth to two births a year, each with 20,40 births. According to the combination of male and female LRV 3, 1000 scorpions are introduced and the annual birth rate is 45000. According to the survival rate of 65%, 45000 live scorpions / kg can be obtained after feeding for 8 months after birth. According to the general market recovery price of 380 yuan / kg, the income can be 11115 yuan. After deducting various expenses of 5000 yuan (seedling) + 200yuan (pond construction, etc.) + 900yuan (feed) + 1000 yuan (labor, etc.) = 7l00 yuan, the net profit was 4015 yuan.

The living habits of Scorpion

1. Social habits: scorpions like tide and fear dry, dark and strong light stimulation. Like to live in groups, quiet and motionless, and have the habit of knowing nests and recognizing groups, most of them settle together in fixed caves. Generally speaking, in large groups of scorpion nests, there are mostly male and female, big and small, live in harmony, and rarely kill each other. But if it is not the same nest of scorpions, they tend to kill each other after meeting.

2. Hibernating habits: scorpions usually go to hibernation after waking in the middle and late days of April, and begin to hibernate slowly in early November, with an annual activity time of about 6 months. During the day, scorpions usually come out from 8pm to 11:00 after sunset and return to their nests at 2am to 3am the next day. This kind of activity is usually in the warm, windless, dry night, but rarely comes out in windy weather.

3. Variable temperature animals: scorpions are variable temperature animals, but they are still cold-resistant and heat-resistant, and the temperature of the external environment can survive from 40 ℃ to minus 5 ℃. The growth, development and reproduction of scorpion are closely related to temperature. The temperature below 10 ℃ is inactive, and the temperature below 20 ℃ is less active. The most suitable temperature for growth and development is between 25 and 39 ℃, and the temperature is the most active at 35 to 39 ℃. The growth and development of scorpion is accelerated.

4. Like dark and afraid of light: scorpions like dark and afraid of light, especially the stimulation of strong light, but they also need a certain amount of light in order to absorb the heat of the sun, improve digestion, accelerate the speed of growth and development, and facilitate the hatching process of embryos in pregnant scorpions. According to reports and observations, scorpions have a positive trend for weak light and a negative trend for strong light, but they prefer to move under weaker green light.

5. Sensitive sense of smell: scorpions have a strong sense of avoidance to all kinds of strong odors such as paint, gasoline, kerosene, asphalt and various chemicals, pesticides, fertilizers, quicklime, etc. It can be seen that the sense of smell is very sensitive. The stimulation of these substances is very disadvantageous to scorpions, even fatal. They are also very sensitive to all kinds of strong vibrations and sounds, and sometimes even scare them away, stopping eating, mating, breeding, giving birth, and so on.
