Snail Feeds by waziri4biz: 1:18pm On Apr 21, 2021
Good day house!
I am about to go into snail farming with like 500 parent snails and chances are that when they start reproducing they will be very many and I'm concerned about feeds for the snail plus their offspring to maturity. I keep hearing feeds are cheap and all but I need actual advise on where to get feeds like waste watermelons, cucumber, cabbage and things I don't need to spend money on... Any useful recommendations will be great.

Snails feed on pawpaw leaves which gives them the required calcium though not as bountiful in cabbage leaves.

They also eat water leave and other decaying fruits.

Mine is almost 6 months though they haven't layer, I just kept them in plastic for learning purposes I believe I have 2 breeds don't really know one from one.
