Snails are very easy to maintain.
Your pen may only need your attention early morning and evening. Thereby giving you time to do other things.

Re: Practical Snail Farming. All About Snailery! by vikacydevato(m): 8:19am On Jan 21, 2017
During this dry season, make sure your pen is always moist. But, do not over water it and cause it to waterlog.

Time to water:
Very early in the morning and later on the evening.

If you make your pen conducive for your snails and give them enough calcium, they can still give your eggs during this dry season.

Re: Practical Snail Farming. All About Snailery! by vikacydevato(m): 1:17pm On May 14, 2017
Planting pawpaw and plantain around your snail farm, serve two purposes:
1. It provides shade for the anails.
2. The leaves and the fruits also serve as feed for your snails.

SNAIL FEEDS AND FEEDING

Snails feed on a wide variety of food mostly in the night and at dusk i.e. snails are nocturnal and crepuscular. They may also feed during the day when it rains or when the cloud dark.

TYPES OF FEED

• LEAVES: Pawpaw, cocoa yam, cassava variety of low cyanide cabbage lettuce, okra, eggplant and cowpea.
• FRUITS: Pawpaw, mango, banana, plantain, eggplant, avocado pear, oil palm, tomatoes, cucumber, sweet orange, guava, pineapple, coconut, breadfruit, cashew and melon.
• TUBERS: cooked cocoa yam, cassava and white yam, raw or cooked sweet potato.
• FLOWERS: Pawpaw, sunflower, milk bush
• GRAINS: ground maize, guinea corn, cereal
• INDUSTRIAL OFFSHOOTS: Wheat waste, rice, spent grains, maize, maize chaff, soya bean residue
• HOUSEHOLD WASTES: peels of banana, plantain, pawpaw, pineapple, cassava and rice, cowpea bran, beans such wastes should not have salt (sodium chloride) which is inimical to the life of the snails.
• DRY COW DUNNING AND POULTRY DROPPINGS
• CONCENTRATE: Compounded ration can be fed to snails. A ratio with the following nutrient composition will be sufficient:
» Carbohydrate 47%
» Protein 41%
» Fats 11%
» Mineral (calcium)0.6%
» Vitamins 0.4%

• MINERAL SUPPLICATION: For full growth and eggs production snails require a lot of calcium which should be provided in form of calcium carbonate powder, ground oyster shell, burnt and ground snail shell, poultry egg shell or bone meal. Our calcium supplement can take care of this aspect.
• WATER: Clean water provided in shallow containers should be made available to snails at all times. Rain, well or river water is better. Avoid the use of chlorinated water (tap water) or water with insecticides, herbicides or fungicides. The soil environment should be kept moist always.
