Wasted investment. There is a parable in Benin that says that "no matter how sweet the meat of a tortoise is, you can never use it to serve a guest". Apart from native doctors and traditional worshippers, no other persons will intentionally patronise a "tortoise farm" . 2 Likes |

Unless you plan on starting a business centred around exportation of tortoise shell. I hear it is widely sort after in Asia- e.g. Vietnam. I don't know how regulated it is in Nigeria but I don't believe it is all that heavily regulated. So, go ahead and start your farm and see where it leads. But you must do some more research before anything. |

oz4real83: You know they export the shell, right? It is a bit expensive on the international market. So, why bother selling to voodoo priests eh? 1 Like |

Christistruth00: Why the option of snail? Is it because they both (tortoise and snail) have shells? 1 Like |

Op, where are you going to stock your farm from? Instead, go into maggots rearing/production. Its very lucrative. |
