My Bei Hai Zoo

In the office.

Xiang Qian, who had just woke up, had an expression of constipation.

The mood is as uncomfortable as eating shit.

Nima! ~

White peacock and phoenix species.

Xiang Qian's jealous eyes were red, but he had nothing to do.

I am a safari park, I don’t need to ask to know...

Valuable transfer?

No show!

As for animal exchange...

What to exchange for money?

Even if he has extra animals, he will probably not succeed.

After all, it is just a peacock egg.

There are risks such as hatching rate and premature death rate.

Therefore, the use of animal exchange, in theory, the two are not equal in value, but will cause the other party to doubt.

To get those two mutant peacock eggs.

There are two ways...

1. Breeding cooperation

The breeding center of Beihai Zoo has been abandoned for many years, and there are no technicians.

Even if there is.

People don't necessarily give face, after all, they don't have much contact with each other.

Two, exchange eggs for eggs

This is the best way, and it can be accepted by both parties.

The issue is…

Sorry! ~

Except for eggs and pigeon eggs, Xiang Qian has nothing!

Nothing to change...

"Your uncle! What does this little dream theater mean?"

Xiang Qian said with a pain on his face.

The dream prediction this time was of little help.

Could it be...

Is it for Lao Tzu to see?

Gritting his teeth to Qian, after all, this feeling of knowing the baby but not getting it.

It hurts too much!

Fortunately.

Things will soon turn around.

...

Time goes back to ten minutes ago.

Tortoise artificial island.

Whenever tourists come here, they will basically choose coin.

Some young people.

Not for praying, but for wearing a ‘red string bracelet’.

after all…

Seeing others wearing bracelets, oneself is not unavoidable to be jealous.

And at the moment.

Zhang Man has been busy for most of the day, and the number of tourists around the artificial island has gradually decreased.

Taking advantage of fewer people.

Zhang Man took a broom and trash can, and immediately went to the island to clean up.

Mainly elephant turtle feces...

Both Jixiang and Fugui have a weight of more than 300 kilograms, and naturally they have a lot of papa.

Ok…

I won’t describe the shape of the stool!

After a while.

Zhang Man cleaned up the excrement and soon came to an artificial beach on the island.

But I saw that a lot of sand was rolled up, and even a sunken sand nest was formed, with many huge circular footprints around it.

Glancing hastily.

Zhang Man couldn't help but said:

"Auspicious lay the egg?"

As a breeder, she can tell the auspicious footprints at a glance, and there must be a large number of elephant turtle eggs buried in the sand nest in the middle.

"That's right! Now is the breeding season."

Zhang Man smiled.

The breeding season of Galapagos tortoises is from July to November.

It's just mid-July now.

Zhang Man is a little happy, but only...

Just happy!

The tortoise lays its eggs, but it does not mean that it can be used to hatch cubs.

Only fertilized eggs can...

In fact.

For many years, Jixiang has lay eggs every year, but unfortunately, because the rich and wealthy have never mate with them, all those eggs are not fertilized eggs without exception.

When the old principal was still there, he had a headache for this matter countless times.

even…

Also had the idea of ​​artificial insemination.

Because artificial insemination is risky, and the target is tortoise that can live a hundred years old.

After weighing it over and over, we can only give up in the end.

...

"Check, what if there is a fertilized egg?"

Zhang Man said, putting down his broom and squatting down in front of the sand nest.

Gently peel off the sand

After a while, I saw a lot of giant tortoise eggs the size of a table tennis ball.

However, Zhang Man took off the flashlight around his waist, and then gently picked up an elephant turtle egg.

Click! ~

The light shone on the giant tortoise eggs, and Zhang Man looked carefully.

It is a pity…

The inside of the egg is very clear, without any shadow.

"Hey, I knew it."

Zhang Man sighed, it was not a fertilized egg.

This elephant turtle egg.

It is impossible to hatch cubs!

"Try again."

Zhang Man said that he changed a giant tortoise egg, and then continued to shine with a flashlight.

Under bright light

The inside of this egg is also clear, but there is a shadow circle at the bottom.

"This is... a fertilized egg?"

Zhang Man's scalp exploded and he almost couldn't hold the turtle egg.

Keep your eyes open.

Confirming that the fine circle does exist, Zhang Man has a huge surprise in his heart.

Next second.

He quickly took off the walkie-talkie around his waist and yelled excitedly:

[Zi... the principal! Zhou Qian! Come to the artificial island, the tortoise lays its eggs! ]

...

Xiang Qian is still in the office.

Suddenly heard Zhang Man's excited voice from the intercom.

The **** laid eggs?

Frozen to Qian, he quickly picked up the walkie-talkie and asked:

[Zi... Is it a fertilized egg? ]

[Zi...Yes, come on! Principal. ]

"Fuck!!!"

The huge surprise instantly made Xiang Qian jump up with excitement.

In grandpa's diary.

He had seen the information about elephant tortoise laying eggs, but the fertilized eggs never appeared, and this is naturally the first time.

The next second, Xiang Qian replied excitedly:

[Zi... I'll be here soon! ]

have to say.

Heaven and **** are only a thread away.

A moment ago.

Xiang Qian's face hurts, but now he is so happy!

...

quickly.

Dang Xiangqian quickly ran to the artificial island.

But when they saw that Zhang Man and Zhou Qian were already sorting elephant turtle eggs, Xiang Qian immediately ran up to help, and at the same time asked:

"There are really fertilized eggs?"

"Well, two-thirds of them should be fertilized eggs."

Zhou Qian nodded, then picked up a turtle egg and irradiated with a flashlight:

"Look, there is a shadow on the bottom of the eggshell. This is the sperm circle of the fertilized egg."

After checking Qian's eyes, he immediately nodded and laughed:

"Hahaha, we are rich!"

"You remember the money."

Zhou Qian gave a white glance, and then carefully put the fertilized egg in her hand into a blue plastic box.

...

More than ten minutes later.

The three were finally sorted, Zhou Qian calculated:

"A total of 368 elephant turtle eggs, of which 242 are fertilized eggs, accounting for 65.7%."

Sure enough, two thirds are fertilized eggs.

"Posted! Posted!"

Excited to the money, the previous exchange method of'egg for egg' is naturally possible.

Of course!

If you want to exchange for peacock eggs, you must also know some relevant information.

In the next second, I suppressed Qian's excitement and immediately asked:

"Zhou Qian, what is the hatching rate of tortoises? And peacock eggs."

Peacock eggs?

Zhou Qian had some doubts, but she still answered:

"Now that the incubation technology is developed, whether tortoises or peacock eggs can reach a hatching rate of over 98%."

Xiang Qian's eyes lit up and he quickly asked:

"If you say, I mean if! I exchange elephant turtle eggs for peacock eggs, is it possible?"

Elephant turtle eggs for peacock eggs?

Not to mention Zhou Qian, even Zhang Man is confused.

In the next second, before Zhou Qian spoke, Zhang Man preached:

"This... depends on how to change. Although they are all fertilized eggs, the cubs of these two animals have different growth periods, and there is a big difference in mortality rate..."

Listening patiently to Qian.

simply put.

Under the conditions of captivity.

Peacocks grow up in 3-4 months and become sexually mature at 22 months. It takes 2-3 years to reach adulthood.

Because the growth period is short.

and so…

The mortality rate of peacocks is not high. Except for birth defects and diseases, most cubs can live to adulthood.

in turn.

Elephant tortoise!

Especially the Galapagos tortoise.

15 years old (can identify sex) about 20-25 years of sexual maturity.

As for adult...

very sorry.

It takes more than fifty years.

Fifty years...

Kill people.

Before adulthood, tortoise cubs are very fragile.

For example, a newborn baby tortoise is about the size of a ping-pong ball. It usually requires careful care and frequent bathing, otherwise it will easily die if dehydrated.

without any exaggeration.

Even if you bask in the sun...

Giant tortoise cubs may die from the sun, let alone the various risks they may encounter in the next fifty years.

Actually.

Giant tortoise cubs in wild conditions have a terrifying mortality rate.

Only about one percent of cubs.

To be able to live healthy to adulthood, this ratio is still a conservative estimate, and should actually be lower.

This is no wonder.

Giant tortoises lay hundreds of eggs in response to the high mortality rate.

...

"Therefore, it is impossible to exchange elephant turtle eggs for peacock eggs."

Zhang Man made an analysis, Zhou Qian also nodded:

"Yes! There is a ratio problem between the two."

After listening to this explanation, Xiang Qian didn't panic at all.

Big deal five for one...

No, even ten for one!

Just change to the two mutant peacock eggs.

Don't lose money to money, think about this clearly.

In the next second, Xiang Qian found nearby riches, and then reached out and patted, the huge turtle shell smiled:

"Rich, you finally became a man today... Uh, a male turtle!"

puff! ~

Zhou Qian and Zhang Man laughed, and said with relief to Qian Jixiang who looked aside:

"Fortunately, you are a hero mother!"

For Beihai Zoo, there are more than two hundred fertilized eggs in a plastic box.

It is undoubtedly a treasure!
