obua:Good question , just expect that 100 medium size snails will eat equivalent of about N200 worth ugwu every day . That is a lot of vegetation. You can't plant that in the same farm. You will probably need to buy. |

Afrocatalyst: Please boss, I need your advice on something. I have seen a lot of people saying they like to eat snail but touching it raw because of how slimy it is has been their problem. I want to see how I can start snail packaging, that's like doing all the necessary washing involved and removing all the slimy texture and dirt, then packaging it as ready to use (cook/fry/drill) and supplying to food stores, restaurants & hotels around me. My question is after the washing & treatment done is there any thing I might need to do before packaging so that it can stay fresh and remain good for consumption if well preserved? Please I need your urgent respond to this and I will also like to know were I can be getting regular supply in bulk at cheap prices as I am based in Lagos. Thank you. |

emonkey: The more reason we don't construct only one snailfield in a farm,no matter how small the perimeter is. Minimum is four for large farms and two for spaces of 10ft by 10ft and less. Vegetation is very important and the process must be gotten right. We advice different crops per each field. The more the merrier and the more active they become cos then,they have more varieties. |

A snail farm in Kenya, the only one in Kenya as Kenyans don't eat snails as they detest it just as many of us hate snakes. The snails in the pictures are consumed by foreigners. The farm produced about 12,000 snails annually. 2 Likes

Pavore9:I have this before and I love her style of farming. |
Re: PICTURES..The Construction Of Free Range Snail Farming System. by Afrocatalyst: 11:52am On Sep 01, 2015 |
melakes: The top of the internal snail fields will be covered with net. And the tope of the whole farm will be covered too with net and cut palm leaves will be put on top of them to serve as sun shades. Will post a picture soon. |
Re: PICTURES..The Construction Of Free Range Snail Farming System. by Afrocatalyst: 11:57am On Sep 01, 2015 |
Pavore9: Yes. That's another method (intensive tho). Intensive snail farming is good and require more amount of time and effort on the side of the field maintainance. Free range is better and requires less amount of time and effort. One produces fresh snails while the other produces snails with dried shells. Will soon start a thread on the third method that tops these both. |

kentochi:She said in an interview that in 2007 she visited Obasanjo who is her father's friend at his Ota farm, it was OBJ who encouraged her to start the farm. |

Irrigation system and plantation. |
Re: PICTURES..The Construction Of Free Range Snail Farming System. by micjaga: 9:05pm On Sep 02, 2015 |
So now that you've finished that , do you have to wait for the plants to grow first before bringing in the snails and how long will it take ? |
Re: PICTURES..The Construction Of Free Range Snail Farming System. by Afrocatalyst: 9:56pm On Sep 02, 2015 |
micjaga: Vegetation is a very important process. The waiting is worth it. You should strive to achieve something like this. And this can be achieved with some exotic seeds like kale,cabbage,lettuce etc. The germinate in 7 - 10 days after planting their seeds. And they get to maturity like the one below in 70 to 100days. Provided a good potty soil is used and there is constant supply of water (irrigation) Planting seeds is better than stem planting.
