Understanding the season as a snail Farmer helps you to run a profitable venture.

The dry season is fast approaching and it's expedient we prepare ahead of this scorching, heat-smiling season.
Here are some hacks to improve productivity.

1. BUILD A SHED

During the dry season, the intensity of the heat triples because, the sunrise early and it sets late; making the environment unbearable for the snails to thrive which leads to an increase in mortality rate.

Building a shed above your snail pen reduces heat conduction by 50%. meaning, you've just saved half of your snails stockings from dying from HEAT!

Hw cn sum1 start a snail farm

Everyone keeps wondering why snails are very slow in their growth rate, but the truth is, snails grow in a steady pattern.
Howbeit, their growth rate is influenced by so many factors.
Let's look at those factors briefly
1⃣ EARLY ISOLATION
Let's start from their "craddle" stage When snails just got hatched from their shells, they "eat-up" their egg shells first and remain deep in the soil for 4-5days.
➖
Based on personal experience, snailets that are isolated faster from their egg shells suffers stunted growth; when compared with snails that patiently ate-up their encompassing egg shells

it depends on how well you feed the snails but at best farming practices, it takes 12-15 months for them to grow into maturity

vito30:

Snails may die based on: Poor management practices, Feed contamination, Soil contamination, Exposure to Chemicals etc.

Their duration depends on what you feed them with

[/b][b][b][/b][b][/b]To be more factual mortality is a natural phenomenon in livestock production and snails are not left out of the "Air Strike" Of course, snails die too! Here are some factors that may trigger their mortality on your snail farm.
➖
3. FEED CONTAMINATION
When serving your snails fruits, leaves or vegetables; it must be rinsed thoroughly; especially if you don't know the source of the fruits because alot of fruits in the market have been sprayed with different chemicals ranging from herbicides to pesticides while some farmers go the extra mile of INDUCING THEIR FRUITS to ripe
➖
When snails eat contaminated feed, overtime, they begin to react to the feed and they start DYING

Embracing the best farming practices when setting up your snail farm will increase the yield and productivity of your snails after stocking for couple of days, I will be sharing some tips on what you should know while setting up your snail farm
➖
2⃣ SOIL TREATMENT
Soil is a fertile medium for both harmful organisms and harmless organisms to thrive in. It is very essential to treat your soil to get rid of the harmful organisms such as ants, centipedes, bugs etc which may kill the snails IF not eradicated
.
Using Neem treatment on your soil is an organic way of treating the soil; howbeit, it requires some expertise because too much of the neem can kill the snails too! Don't worry,Ngsnails is always ready to help you handle the technicalities

➖
1⃣ YOUR SOIL
Several debates have been trending on which soil is the best for snails . Howbeit, LOAMY SOIL remains the BEST soil because it contains more decayed organic matters; which enhances the growth of the snails when ingested!

In brief, ensure you use LOAMY SOIL for your snail stocking to make them thrive well

Have you ever wondered why snails burrow deep into the soil to lay their eggs in cluster of 6-10 eggs? �� Snail eggs hatch at room temperature and a relative humidity of about 70% - 90%

When these conditions are not fufilled, the eggs will not hatch�� How can you set these conditions in place in your pen? We shall be discussing that in the next post��

Always remember that you need point of lays as a new farmer to start counting eggs all around your pen�� #ngsnails got you covered � Call �08092414515 (whatsapp)
