HOW TO DIFFERENTIATE A MALE FROM A FEMALE GRASSCUTTER. most grasscutter looks alike and it would be a little bit difficult for a newbie to differentiate between them. mere looking at them, you can easily differentiate them buy looking at their nose. a female grasscutter has a short and kind of oblong nose which a male grasscutter has a long and abit pointed nose. it is always easier to detect them by their sizes also as a male grasscutter are always bigger than their female counterpart. lastly, you can also differentiate them by looking at their genitals. a male genital is abit far from where they pass their waste than that of the female |

aquadude15:you're welcome |
| Re: Diary Of My Grasscutter Colony by TheStakeHolder(m): 8:21am On Mar 22, 2021 |
aquadude15:Please explain something to me... You said a colony contains a male and about 3 females. That's 4 for 80k ![]() If I sell each at 7k or 8k, how is this profitable? Please help clarify the cost price and selling price. I believe I'm missing something here. |
| Re: Diary Of My Grasscutter Colony by aquadude15(op): 12:52pm On Mar 22, 2021 |
TheStakeHolder:a colony contains 5 grasscutter, I.e 2males and 3females. their is nowhere in Nigeria a grasscutter will go for even 10k presently. since they are hard to comment, it makes the demand high, reason why you get to sell your little grasscutter faster to other farmers willing to buy. you only sell the aged ones when their reproduction reduces. I priced a processed Matured grasscutter last month when travelling along osun last month, and the last price I got was 18k. kindly confirm the price around your vicinity |

aquadude15:please stop this exaggeration. This thread is educative but remove the lies. Where in Nigeria is a grasscutter sold for N18,000? Even an antelope that is more expensive doesn't sell for that amount. |

aquadude15:I still bought around Akure last month for 7k. |
| Re: Diary Of My Grasscutter Colony by TheStakeHolder(m): 2:07pm On Mar 22, 2021 |
aquadude15:Okay thanks |
| Re: Diary Of My Grasscutter Colony by TheStakeHolder(m): 2:29pm On Mar 22, 2021 |
oz4real83:Thanks for the comment. How much does it cost? Like the range of price for each? |
| Re: Diary Of My Grasscutter Colony by TheStakeHolder(m): 2:31pm On Mar 22, 2021 |
emperor00:Same price someone told me. |
| Re: Diary Of My Grasscutter Colony by oz4real83(m): 2:35pm On Mar 22, 2021 |
TheStakeHolder:within the range of N8000-N10,000 here in Benin city for a dead grasscutter. It is cheaper if u buy directly from the hunters or villagers. |
| Re: Diary Of My Grasscutter Colony by TheStakeHolder(m): 3:36pm On Mar 22, 2021 |
oz4real83:ok tnx |
| Re: Diary Of My Grasscutter Colony by aquadude15(op): 4:48pm On Mar 22, 2021 |
emperor00:kindly drop the contact of the person that sold it to you sir. we can all benefit from it. I am willing to patronise the person to |
| Re: Diary Of My Grasscutter Colony by aquadude15(op): 4:50pm On Mar 22, 2021 |
oz4real83:kindly price a matured and processed grasscutter in your area sir and get back to us sir. thanks |
| Re: Diary Of My Grasscutter Colony by aquadude15(op): 5:03pm On Mar 22, 2021 |
oz4real83:it seems we are deviating already. this trend is not about pricing but let me make some clarification. you can't compare the price of an hunter that goes to the bush and kill a grasscutter with a farmer that breeds them for over 3years. this price you are stating here, I guess it is the price of a dead grasscutter, but have you put into consideration the size?? I believe you can even buy a grasscutter of 3k, but I am talking here of a non reproductive grasscutter and I belief you should be able to imagine the size. anyway. I just want to enlighten people about grasscutter farming, other people ideas are welcome and if you have a contact of any person that sells lesser, kindly post the person contact, I would also be willing to patronise the person |

aquadude15:come to uwa market in Benin city very close to tv road, u Will see alot of assorted bushment both fresh or dried. |
| Re: Diary Of My Grasscutter Colony by oz4real83(m): 5:26pm On Mar 22, 2021 |
aquadude15:in your comment that I respondeded to, u were talking about a processed grasscutter that u got for 18k, is a processed grasscutter not a dead grasscutter? The killer only went ahead to process it and added his expenses that was incurred in the processing, that took the price to 18k. Maybe u even bought it in one of those high-end supermarkets that overinflate their prices. |

HOW TO TREAT WOUNDED GRASSCUTTER I got to my farm this morning and I noticed a wounded grasscutter on her leg (major suspect were her family members as I met blood on their mouth) , it made movement hard for her because she was using her fore leg to pull herself. the first thing to do in a situation like this is to separate the wounded rat, apply methylene blue to the wounded part, then keep it in isolation till the rat is ok |
