Yazz09, am really interested in rearing of snails, already gotten a space for it, well built half way then netted. My questions are
1. What kind of sand do i put in it
2. Where can i get such sand
3. Is it best to buy the snails or just pick form the bushes? Attached below is my allocated space. Email add gloriaafure@gmail.com

How do you intend to bring about adequate supply of water and ventilation with the type of pen in view.

Please can anyone advice on what to do with this kind of problem on my snails.
The stuff is not allowing them to grow up again. Please if you have experienced this before what did you do or what do you think I can do.

This is due to your handling. That portion of snail shells are still fragile at the juvenile stage. Give them adequate calcium to make them regrow the broken portion.

Hey fellow farmers, I just took a step closer to my new animal farm. I will start with a snail farm then I'll add other livestock to the farm as we grow.
I'll be posting updates here periodically for those that might be interested, Ow and some pictures too.

Without further ado, let's get started. ). I've built my Pen (snail house), and today I've put sand in the pen. I will be getting my brood stock before next week runs out, maybe Wednesday. Anyway see the pictures below how my pen looks like.

Till next week update: Food business is Good business.

NB: THE WHATSAPP GROUP HAS REACHED MAX NUMBER OF USERS.
PS NO NEW MEMBERS CAN BE ADDED, MY SINCERE APOLOGIES TO ALL THOSE I COULD NOT ADD
