Lol.
Same thing happened to me o. Contacted a couple of these snail farming "gurus" and I almost dropped the idea.

They were more concerned with consultancy fees or building my snail pen @ 3.5 million naira (actually, it was the guy they call Collins that sent me the quotation).

I will advise you take time to learn about the whole thing, probably start with a very small pen and then scale up as your expertise and resources permit.

Me, I started 3 months ago with 1 pen containing about 100 snails I personally picked from my backyard and today I have grown more than I anticipated.

Hi guys,

Sincerely I have all resources to start this snail farming, have excess of two and half acres that I can plant pawpaw and melon that can be use to feed these snails, but I really have a concern on how lucrative and viability of this snail farming. Unlike chicken and goat meat that is consume by every tom, dick and harry, you hardly see snails in home for consumption.

Also most people I have discussed with and those that claim to be expert in the business are more interested in either consultancy fee, constructing snail house with ridiculous amount or to sell e-book and when I see things like this I tend to doubt and question the profitability of the business itself.

If there is anyone into this business in Snail farming in Lagos, Ogun or Ibadan axis to PM me please. or drop contact.

*Snail Foods and Feeding –*

Snails especially Achatina mainly feeds on green leaves and fruits though they can utilize other ranges of foods. Feed your snails leaves, fruits, or even formula from the feed store. Aside from food to grow tissues, snails need calcium to grow shells.

*Leaves:* Cocoyam leaves, pawpaw leaves, okra leaves, cassava leaves, eggplant leaves, cabbage and lettuce leaves.

*Fruits:* Mango, eggplant, pawpaw, banana, tomatoes, oil palm fruits, pears. and cucumber


*Feed* *Formulations*

Recommendations on formulated feed
As land pressures force people to move from extensive farming, in
which natural foods are abundant, to semi-intensive farming, it may
become necessary to introduce formulated feeds. Studies in Ghana in
which poultry feed was used in snail farming showed that this formula
has good potential in growing A. achatina.
In Archachatina marginata snail farming in Nigeria, commercially
formulated feeds are sometimes used, but they are rather expensive.
You can mix a snail feed formula yourself, using the following ingredients and ratios (in kg per 100 kg mix; recipe from Nigeria)

*right way of feeding*

*Don't put their feed on the soil*
*Get either a tray or flat wood to put* *their food*


*And get fat and a bit shallow tray to put their water*


And make sure u weigh all over

Let it be accurate so u get your 100%


Get your weighing scale

Weigh and follow d percentage .

Grind and mix all together


That's your feed formulation

*Feeding* *Snail* *Properly*

The essence of feeding the snails is to aid reproduction capacity and increase their size. Therefore, be consistent in feeding. They can eat up to 3 – 5 % of their body weight in 24hrs. Snails convert feed to body weight when a balanced diet containing protein, vitamin, minerals, calcium carbonate and phosphate is given to them. Agricultural chemicals in form of spray or powder should be avoided, as they are toxic to snails. Feed snails as much as they can eat, ensure useable water quantity daily.
If active snails are starved of food, they will shade 2 - 5% of their body weight in 24 hrs. Snails are basically fed twice in a day i.e in the evenings between 5pm - 7pm and early in the morning, between 7am-9am. Snails are nocturnal animals i.e they are more active at night. The feed items should be distributed evenly within the snailery to enhance equal feeding opportunity for all the snails. Avoid
salt and salty foods since snails do not survive high salt intake.


Weigh the ingredient onces u get them and grind them 2geda

����A self-mix snail feed formula

Ingredients kg

Maize 31.3kg
Groundnut cake 10kg
Soy bean meal 25kg
Fish meal 4kg
Wheat offal 16kg
Palm kernel cake 4.2kg
Oyster shell 8.05kg
Bone meal 1.2kg
Premix vitamins & minerals 0.25kg

N.B the protein is very high
Calcium is also high
These are the two major ingredients that make snail grow very fast. Remember snail has higher percentages of flesh & shell so for very fast growth the feed must have very high percentage of protein & calcium.
Give them vegetables like moringa & the leaves of one plant call Agunmaniye in Yoruba.... It give them very fast growth, okra leaves & pawpaw leaves
Give them fruits like watermelon, carrot ,leftover orange after sucking the water ,pear intact any fruit high in vitamin C

I hope you know what is happening in Kano now?
Let me ask my Prof this question.
How many people are been tested on daily basis in Ibadan?
Do you know what community transmission is at all? You'll soon curse that Gov.

7pm to 6am actually. Let them continue spewing thrash. They are far more intelligent than all the folks at UCH and Oyo state's Ministry of health. As if they've not weighed the pros and cons of the decision. They just sit down at home and analyse rubbish. Mscheww.

bamidelee:

Leave those praising the guy, when people start to die on the street, they would start laying curses on him

splashbaby:
The problem I have is this failed doctors trying to scare people off getting alternative drugs to heal themselves when obviously their crazy ideas are not giving us results. They believe they can supritend over health issues at all times even when they are helpless and useless when we have alternative solution with effective result already.

CHINA HAS ACHIEVED ECONOMIC WORLD VICTORY BY CHEATING

He first created the Corona virus vaccine and kept it in his fridge until the economic economy of the whole world was brought down. China had become the hub of investors all over the world.
China left the virus in its Wuhan city and due to the tremendous deaths, the shares of the fleeing investors bought the price of the currency and the foreign investors and entrepreneurs ran away from their capital. China has already created and hidden the vaccine Took out and stopped the deaths of China in a single day. In this war, China lost some of its people but looted the wealth of the whole world. Today there has not been a single death, nor has the number of patients increased. Today this virus is circulating like the world.
Amazing also see the back of all those countries and cities where the Chinese have broken
Citizens used to spend. Today the whole world
Everyday is seeing its economy collapse. On 17 March, China's economy is getting stronger day by day.
This is an economic war in which China has won and is losing its life and property every day while fighting the world.
Wuhan to Beijing = 1152 km
Milan from Wuhan = 15000 km
Wuhan to New York = 15000 km

Corona no effect in nearby Beijing / Shanghai
But deaths in Italy, Iran, Europe countries and ruined the economy of the whole world.

All business areas of China are safe

Something is fishy,
America is not just blaming China.

10 tough questions from China: (must read question no. 6,7,8,9)

1) Where the whole world is being affected by this, why did it not spread anywhere in China except Wuhan? How did China's capital remain untouched by this?

2) Why did China hide from the whole world about the virus?

3) Why destroyed the initial sample of Corona?

4) Why did the doctor and the journalist who brought it up be silenced? Has the journalist been disappeared?

5) When other countries of the world asked to share information, why did they not share the information? Why refuse

6) Why was the Communist Director of WHO used to hide the corona from human to human? WHO Director was doing what he did in "Beijing (China)" in January ..... (Were you fixing the plan?)

7) "There is no need to issue any guideline for any international flight as it does not spread from human to human" .... WHO kept doing this tweet till 11 January. Why Today it has been proved that corona spreads from human to human… so why did the WHO lied ?

Why were 50,00,000 people sent from Wuhan "to different parts of the world" without medical examination ..

9) There was a minor case in Italy till 6 February. Suddenly Chinese 'We are Chinese, not a virus, embrace us.' Why did the world's tourist destination known as 'City of Love' come to embrace the people of Italy with placards

10) The whole world is looking at China and WHO with suspicion today and wonder if both China and WHO came to praise India on the same day! Is it a coincidence?

Way to dominate the world ??

Chinese Strategy: -

1. First created a virus and its medicine.

2. Then the virus spread.

3. Get hospitals built overnight (finally they were already ready), demonstrating their efficiency, ordering projects as well as equipment, renting labor, water and sewage networks, prefabricated building materials and a An impressive amount of stocks .. These were all part of that strategy.

4. As a result, anarchy along with viruses started spreading in the world, especially in Europe.

5. The economy of dozens of countries was quickly affected.

6. Production lines in factories in other countries closed.

7. Consequently a sharp fall in the stock market.

8. China quickly controlled the epidemic in its country. Overnight, new corona patients from Wuhan stopped. How is it possible when a country like Italy has not been able to handle this situation? After all, China was already ready.

9. As a result, the price of goods from which he buys oil etc. on a large scale.

10. China then immediately returned to production, while the world is at a standstill. While there has been an uproar in the world, has China started working in its factories? China started buying things that had fallen drastically and selling them whose price had increased drastically.

Now if you can't believe it ...
In 1999, read the book "Unrestricted War: China's Master Plan to Destroy America" ​​written by the Chinese colonies Qiao Liang and Wang Jiangsui !! * All these facts are there.

Just think about it…

How Russia and North Korea are completely free from Kovid 19? Because they are staunch allies of China. Not a single case was reported from these 2 countries. On the other hand South Korea / United Kingdom / Italy / Spain and Asia are severely affected. Because all of this is competitive in China ..

How did Wuhan suddenly free itself from the deadly virus?

China would say that their initial measures were too harsh and Wuhan was closed down to spread to other regions. But this answer is very funny .. Had it been so, it would not have spread to the rest of the countries and would have been limited to one city. It is 100% true that they are using anti-virus of the virus.

Why no one was killed in Beijing? Why only Wuhan? Interesting idea… Well, Wuhan is now open for business. America and all the above mentioned countries are financially devastated. Soon the US economy will collapse according to China's plan. China knows that it cannot defeat America militarily because at present, according to this America is the largest powerful country in the world.

So this is the world victory formula of China… Use virus to paralyze the economy and defense capabilities of other countries. Certainly Nancy Pelosi was made an assistant in this cause to compete with Trump. President Trump has always been describing how the Great American economy is improving on all fronts. Economic catastrophe was the only way to destroy his vision of creating AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. Nancy Pelosi was unable to impeach Trump. .... So they adopted this method of destroying Trump by releasing a virus in association with China. Wuhan was just a demonstration of the epidemic ... Now this virus has taken the epidemic to the extreme !!!

Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived in just one simple RM1 facemask to visit those effective areas, as President he should be covered from head to toe ..... but it was not so. They were already injected to resist any kind of damage from the virus. This means that the virus was being treated even before it was released.

Now if you argue that - Bill Gates had already predicted a virus outbreak in 2015… so the Chinese agenda cannot be true. So the answer is - yes, Bill Gates predicted it but that prediction was based on an actual virus outbreak and not man-made. Now China is also stating that the virus was foreseen so that its agenda matches that prediction and everything seems natural or automatic. Still, if this authentic fact seems artificial to you, then look ahead yourself… China’s next step will be to control the world economy by buying stocks now from countries facing the brink of a declining economic economy… later China will announce that their medical researchers have found a cure to destroy the virus.
Now China has stocks of other countries in the armories of its armies and these countries will soon be slaves to their master under compulsion !!

And yes, one more thing…
The Chinese doctor who revealed the virus was also silenced forever by the Chinese authorities.....
THINK!

Just as I earlier anticipated..

alizma:
Maybe we should also go back to find out who was responsible for 1720, 1820 and 1920 plague

EMMAUGOH:
Lol... More is coming.. Seems China is thinking differently on how to take power from almighty US...


SOME stupid people are blaming trump for calling it a Chinese virus..

EUROPE IS the biggest hit
