How to develop animal feed to solve the problem of frog feed

bullfrog culture

For frog breeding, the development of animal feed is an important link. Perennial frog farmers introduced nine ways for farmers to refer to.

(1) Light traps insects.

Above the frog pond feeding platform, 23 cm from the water surface, hang a 30 watt black light or purple light, which can lure insects, planthoppers, etc., and bullfrogs will gather under the light to prey at night. This method works best from May to September, turning on the lights should be after the sun goes down to midnight, more dew in the second half of the night, less insects, should turn off the lights to save electricity.

(2) Breeding earthworms.

Cow dung, rotten fruit, rice washing water, etc. are put into the land in the bullfrog pond, mixed with soil, and earthworms are put in to breed. After a period of cultivation, earthworms emerge at night and can be preyed on by bullfrogs. Can also use sporadic wasteland, apply sufficient cow dung to cultivate earthworms, each square meter can produce 5~7 kg.

(3) Silkworm rearing.

Silkworms grow fast and only need about 20 days to live. Young silkworms can be used to feed young frogs. When they grow to 4.5~5 years old, they can be used to feed adult frogs.

(4) Feeding Tenebrio molitor.

Tenebrio molitor is the best feed for bullfrogs, easy to feed, only wheat bran and cabbage leaves can be fed. However, insects grow slowly and must be raised in larger quantities to ensure feed supply.

(5) Breeding golden apple snail.

Using sporadic ditch pond or build small pond, also can breed in frog pond water, breed, produce a pink egg block every 5~10 days in high temperature season, each egg block has about 1000 eggs, egg breaks membrane hatch small snail to make bullfrog feed.

(6) Trapping flies to breed maggots.

hanging a large mouth basin, a tray, etc. at a position 30 cm above the bullfrog culture pond, putting bait such as waste livestock meat, fish viscera, etc. inside to lure flies and breed maggots, and when maggots climb out of the mouth of the basin and fall into water, they become frog delicacies. Can also build a small pool, put bean curd residue in the pool, then put rice washing water, etc., cover the pool surface, after a few days maggot breeding, can be fed bullfrog.

7) Use of waste.

Disinfect and crush the slaughter leftovers of meat joint factories and restaurants, mix them with mixed feed and feed them. Where there are silk reeling factories, silkworm chrysalis can be used as feed, pig lungs and cow lungs can also be purchased and chopped up for feeding.

(8) Culturing Daphnia.

Daphnia, commonly known as "red worm,""fish worm," is the ideal feed for small tadpoles. First drain the water in the culture pool, clean the pool and disinfect it, sprinkle 1 kg of chicken manure, bean curd residue, etc.(or other livestock fertilizer) in each square meter of pool, preferably after one week of sunlight exposure, irrigate 40 cm, and put in the daphnia seed source. After a few days, the pool water turns green, and a large number of daphnia can be propagated in the pool water after two weeks.

9) Catch small fish.

Located in the river, lake or fish pond near the breeding point, can often catch wild fish, shrimp for feed.

The artificial breeding of frogs in the courtyard not only artificially creates environmental conditions suitable for the growth of frogs, but also provides rich and sufficient nutrition for frogs by breeding earthworm, grasshopper, mealworm, fly maggot and other frog feeds. but also to fight diseases.
