How to raise toads How to raise toads

1. Toads like to hide in mud holes, wet rocks and grass, lurk during the day and come out in the evening, so the site should be built as close as possible to these places, and they should be hidden during the day. In addition, in order to prevent them from escaping, fences or nets should be built in the breeding area, breeding ponds, spawning ponds and hatching ponds should be built, and lighting equipment should be installed in the ponds to attract moths and insects to prey at night.

2. Toad is an oviparous animal, which is extremely fertile. Each female toad can lay 4000-5000 eggs at a time. Eggs can be hatched in about 3-4 days by putting them in water at the temperature of 65,438+00-30 degrees. In the early stage of breeding, wild and healthy toads can be caught on credit as seeds, or the eggs laid by toads can be taken back to hatch by themselves.

3. Toads mainly feed on beetles, moths, snails and maggots. The newly hatched toad tadpoles lived on the nutrition left by eggs for two days, and then began to eat outside on the third day. At this time, cooked egg yolk, water fleas and other baits can be fed, and young toads can be fed with maggots, earthworms and Tenebrio molitor, while adult toads have a large food intake, and the cost of feeding maggots, earthworms and Tenebrio molitor is high, so bean cakes and flour can be used.

4. Pay attention to the density of tadpoles after hatching. At first, the number of tadpoles per square meter should be less than 4,000, after half a month, the number of tadpoles per square meter should be less than 1000, and the number of young toads should be about 30-40. Feeding in groups according to different growth stages, the water depth of tadpole pond should be between 20-40cm and the water temperature should be 18-28 degrees. Toads will go into dormancy in cold winter, and the temperature of the site can be raised to prevent them from dormancy. In addition, keep them well and pay attention to insect prevention. Toads are less ill, so pay attention to pests, especially rats and snakes.
