After the peak of the turtle industry in 2015, the price of various types of turtles has plummeted, and some former aristocratic giants now only have 10% of the peak, such as Annam, black neck, spotted, stone turtle and so on. However, there are also some varieties that have gradually gained a foothold after experiencing wind and rain, although during the downturn in the turtle market, the price has been relatively stable in a few years, such as Anbu (including line an, black ash an, flat an), eye spots, four eyes, egg turtles and so on. Below I talk about my more familiar line and eye spots four eyes, purely personal views, only for private communication and not for investment reference, please read clearly.
The most significant advantage of line farming: beautiful and rare
In the last century, there have been sporadic breeding in China, because the transportation conditions and breeding technology of turtles are not mature, and the turtle resources in the hands of farmers are not rich so far, but with the accumulation of time and technology, the number of seedlings cultivated in line has increased year by year, and the confidence of farmers has increased significantly.
1. The place of origin is single, and the supply is scarce and controllable. Line An only lives in the mountainous and swampy areas at the junction of Yunnan and northern Myanmar, the traffic is blocked, the transportation is inconvenient, I heard that the early line an turtle was brought back to China by local mountain people and some domestic timber merchants and caused farmers to pay attention to. Compared with other Ambhu subspecies, the single origin of line security and its own species source is scarce, ensuring that the price of turtles will not be strongly impacted by foreign sources, but will cause upward changes because of the strengthening of resource protection in the place of origin, we should cherish the line of turtles that have flowed into the market for historical reasons, legal breeding, and active breeding and conservation.
2, the cheapest and most beautiful closed shell turtle. Among the several large closed-shell turtles in China, the Anbu turtle belongs to the cheapest, due to the better quality and survival rate, the line an belongs to the high-end varieties in the Anbu turtle, but compared to other closed-shell turtles, the line is a closed-shell turtle species with moderate cost performance and low entry threshold.
Line an ornamental is strong, the shell color is dark, the flesh color is yellow with red, the red, yellow and black tri-color is one, solemn and calm, quite royal; the black spots on the bottom plate are symmetrical on both sides, the shape is similar and the reality is different, the virtual and the real are ethereal, and there is a chinese calligraphy stroke that rhymes, which is pleasing to the eye; the golden V-shaped head pattern on the top of the head, which means beautiful and auspicious; the shell arc is beautiful, and the appearance is elegant and noble. Many novices fall in love at first sight, and it can be seen that the line turtle is indeed charming, and has great potential for development in the player market.
3. The amount of eggs is moderate and the continuous development time is long. The first year of the downhill turtle species is generally no egg or water eggs, reared for two or three years, the environmental arrangement will increase to two or three eggs, the longer the domestication time, the more stable the number of eggs, but most turtle friends feedback generally a nest of no more than 5 eggs. At present, there are very few artificial turtles, and the amount of eggs produced is not determined, and it is estimated that there are more than four or five grains in a litter. Batch breeding is currently concentrated in the Pearl River Delta and Maozhan regions, and in recent years, some black and gray farmers in Hainan and Guangxi have also begun to transform into batch breeding lines because they are optimistic about this excellent variety. According to the data feedback of these two or three years of line turtle friends, the national line of turtles should not exceed 5,000 seedlings, so we believe that the breeding of line turtles has sustainable and broad breeding prospects.
4, the seedlings are easy to raise fast, high survival rate. The eggs are large, the seedlings are large and heavy, the food is fast, the food is miscellaneous, the small pot is shallow water, it grows fast and large, and if it is raised in the greenhouse in the first year, it can grow to half to a pound.
5. The mass foundation is solid and the breeding range is wide. After several years of shock washing in the turtle market, the farmers who still adhere to the line of breeding must be firmly optimistic about the prospects of line breeding, many of which have a group of strong farmers with financial and technical advantages, who have been constantly exploring and researching line breeding technology for several years, and encouraging each other to support the long winter of the turtle city. Under their influence, more and more people have joined the ranks of line security artificial breeding, and even in some large cities in the north, there are some line security breeding enthusiasts. Because Line An lives for many years in the high mountain dense forest bordering Yunnan and Burma, the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, and there is a temperature below 15 degrees in the year, so Line An is not afraid of low temperatures, afraid of strong winds blowing directly, as long as indoor hibernation, Line An breeding in the north is not a problem at all.
