The wire net u used are too big ...soldier ants could enter ,some other insects that could be harmful to you snails could find their way inside ...also..since u placed them directly on the ground ..y don't u try planting things in the pen..somethings that could serve as food as also cool the snails off ..
The environment is secured from soldier ants, also the roof of the pen is covered so there is enough shade. I didn't think of the idea of planting something there early cos all d watermelon that's germinating has been consumed by the snails. I have a small vegetation at the side for them though.

If the birds still have lice, definitely u must do something about it, hence, the production will not peak.
I advice you repeat the ivermectin using other brand aside the one you have tried. U should also consider doping them in MB50 solution same day(though a stressful operation) but it worked for me. it will crash the production but be sure it will build up steadily and you will enjoy the fruit of ur labour. Pls give the good vitamins after the treatment (promine)
Boss, where in Abuja is your farm located? Mine is in gwags.

@Neduzze5, what else do you feed your snails apart from fruits and vegetables?
AgricultureRe: Beginning A Small Scale Snail Farm by macdot(m): 10:47am On Aug 25, 2015
Neduzze5:
He has confirmed it in his thread. But I'd equally have to confirm it myself by buying and making use of it. And as you know, it would take two or three months to see the positive or negative effects in the snails.
That's true, I will be waiting to hear your positive revelations. Since this is my first try at this, I will like to see how the natural rearing goes before trying other options in the next batch.

He's for real. I've been in contact with him for a while and the product actually exists. What we cannot actually verify is it does what it says it does.
Okay.... So who can confirm it's work?

I get my DOC directly from the hatchery. Just call the No's you see on any carton used to package the birds
Thanks for the reply, do they make arrangements for drivers too? Please I need Chi or zartech's contact. Thanks

so many factors could be responsible.
1. Periodic boaster Laxota 4:6weeks
2. periodic deworming. 6:8wks
4. anti coccidial treatment. shd be periodic if on deep litres.
4. Regular treatment with antibiotics such as Neoceryl to wade off diseases. from the last forum i attended. i discovered that laying birds could be exposed to Fowl Typhoid minimum 2times a month
5. Regular vitamins and amino ac
Bro, please how do you get your DOCs to Abj, is it through the middlemen or directly from the hatchery?

The sales of snails depends largely on the shell size. The bigger the shell the more expensive it becomes.this is were I come in. We are into pure calcium production for snails most especially and other animals at a very cheap price. All u need do is put it anywhere in there pens and they will run towards it. No be joke oh. It helps the snail grow faster than u imagine. Archantina marginata will be ready for sales after 5months at 200 each, cos of the shell size, archantina archantina 7months also. For more and rapid egg production all snails need calcium supplements, u could Google that urself to believe me. It comes for a give away price of 200naira a pack, that can take u for two weeks with 50 big snails. It's it not cheap enough. Also we are giving it free of charge for first order for everyone any were u are in Nigeria, do you know y, because we are sure of our product and that u will call back for it. Except ur motive of rearing the snails is not for sales. Call me or WhatsApp me at 08032512493.
Can we see pictures of its revelations?

Hello house, please i need your opinion on this.... my broilers are 3 weeks and 3 days old and i have been feeding them vital feeds since onset. however someone advised me to switch to hybrid feeds from finisher stage cos the feed is very good. Please has anyone used hybrid feeds and is it good or better than vital?
