Soft- shelled turtle , also known as water fish and round fish, has been a traditional Chinese food therapy and nourishing food since ancient times. Moreover, soft-shelled turtles have strong adaptability, fast growth rate, short cycle and high production efficiency, so their breeding has been promoted in many places in my country. So how many soft- shelled turtles can be raised per acre? Let’s learn more about it below. How many soft-shelled turtles can be raised per acre? Generally speaking, one acre of pond can raise 1,000-2,000 soft-shelled turtles, but the specific number depends on the actual situation of the pond. This includes factors such as the pond's water quality, bottom quality, water temperature, dissolved oxygen content, as well as the farmer's management techniques and experience. How to select high-quality turtle seedlings when raising soft-shelled turtles? 1. Variety selection Common turtle species on the market include Chinese soft-shelled turtle, mountain soft-shelled turtle, American soft-shelled turtle, etc. Among them, the Chinese soft-shelled turtle has excellent quality, fast growth rate, and strong disease resistance, making it the first choice for breeders. 2. Body shape and posture High-quality turtle fry have a full and symmetrical body, a straight back, and no water accumulation or depression in the abdomen. A wide, thick, and straight hemline indicates malnutrition, while a soft, thin, and sagging hemline indicates malnutrition. The limbs are strong, the fingers and toes are sharp, and can be stretched freely. 3. Body surface condition The surface of healthy soft-shelled turtle fry is smooth, without obvious scars, ulcers or parasites , and there are no white spots or white spots on the back, abdomen and armpits of the limbs, otherwise it means that it has been infected with bacteria. 4. Activity ability High-quality turtle fry are highly active, quick to react, and good at climbing. It can move freely in the water, has strong swimming ability, and often forages and basks in the center of the water . 5. Weight specifications Choose turtle fry with moderate weight and uniform body shape. Generally, the weight should be between 50-100 grams. Turtle fry with uniform specifications are conducive to balanced growth and reduce competitive pressure during the breeding process. 6. Purchase channels Choose to buy from a qualified turtle fry breeding farm with complete legal certificates, and avoid buying from middlemen who sell turtle fry of unknown origin or species. In general, the appropriate number of soft-shelled turtles to be raised in one acre of pond is usually between 1,000 and 2,000. However, this figure is only a rough guide and needs to be adjusted according to specific circumstances during actual breeding. At the same time, careful selection of seedlings should be done before breeding to ensure the healthy growth of soft-shelled turtles and maximize breeding benefits.
