Snake feed and its preparation

The animal food eaten by various snakes must be related to the environment in which they live, which is related to the geographical distribution of small animals. For example, snakes on land eat a wide range of food, such as insects and their larvae, fish, frogs, snakes, birds, rabbits, and so on, while snakes living in the sea feed on marine fish. Even if the same kind of snake is in different regions and in different seasons, the eating habits of adults and larvae are different. Providing rich food is the key to raising snakes. The food of wide-eating snakes should be diversified, so some live frogs, rodents, fish and lizards should be put in regularly.

Feeding young snakes with artificial compound feed can speed up the weight gain of young snakes. Feed configuration: 150 grams of livestock and poultry meat or animal scraps are processed into mashed meat with a meat grinder (can also be a dead big toad or mouse). Add 150 grams of egg liquid, 150 grams of soybean powder, 50 grams of cold boiled water, three tablets of compound vitamin B and five tablets of oxytetracycline, mix well and mix them into a thick paste. According to the nutritional needs of snakes, artificial snake bait requires that the content of crude protein is more than 19%, the content of crude fiber is less than 1.5%, the content of calcium is more than 0.6%, the content of phosphorus is more than 0.5%, the content of other inorganic salts is less than 4%, vitamin An is 3500 international units / kg, vitamin D2 is 440 international units / kg, moisture is less than 62%, and other trace ingredients are added, which is beneficial to the growth and development of snakes. Feed materials mainly include: livestock and poultry and other animal meat, wheat bran, fish meal, blood meal, water and other raw materials. The processing method is to cut the animal meat into powder, stir it into pulp and cook it. Then all the raw materials were mixed and stirred evenly, then puffed, and after cooling, the relevant drugs were added for use. The nutritional needs of snakes vary from breed to breed, and their composition should be adjusted according to the growth and development of snakes. Artificial feed can be poured into casings and fed to snakes in the form of sausages.
