balladin:
I don't subscribe to the soil treatment idea. This is because snails grow everyday in the wild untreated soil. They grow and do very well without any soil treatment and in spite of millions of ants in the bush. Can someone justify the idea of treating soil please?

Wild snails don't stay in one place, they wander throughout their life in the wild. I'm very sure by this, they should bypass almost every danger to come their way. Ones that would be rear in one place, they don't have enough space to run for their predator. Is like you tie them to one place, once insects and other predators know that they are there, they must come for them.

u mean u will clean each snail...then how often..I am interested in this...did u use leaves to cover the net untop the snail house before introducing the snails pls can I have ur numb

no, just pour rushing water on all of them and remove immediately, the dirt comes off easily.

yes Hen layers marsh with a mix of calcium powder. It’s just a supplement so their shell can grow fast and strong

i just started the farm so I can’t say… I bought the feed 2500/5kg from the farmer, tho it might be cheaper in the market. I’m still a novice in this, you should contact professionals if you want to go commercial.

Keep it up. God bless your hand that works and the result will be great

You're doing very well with this project.

God bless this snail farming of yours. I am learning.

Nice one...

I believe tarp with secrete heat. School me please…. Tho I already ordered shaded net on aliexpress. It’s still on transit

I think it should be fine even with the transparent trap since the place is not air tight.

Either way you want the place to always be moist adding plants is a good look to provide shade.

Maybe even adding some sort of system to provide a mist of water

nice one

Make i follow this thread

After 5 years of procrastination, I finally decided to take action today.

Good day my people, please follow on my snail farming journey. I will be building a mini green house for my snails but first and foremost I will be planting some vegetables and crops before introducing the snails.

Follow me as I construct the green house.

Interesting.

I recently acquired on plot of land and my initial plan was to train snails on it though I have decided to go with turkeys instead.

You are now making me rethink my decision.

Maybe I will also do a mini snail farm on the side and see how it goes

perfect, the best is to start small scale

This is so lovely... I was talking to someone about this yesterday, not knowing I will come across this thread.

Well done sir.

Please I need a lot to learn from you and I would love to have your contact if you don't mind. Thanks

Wow. I love this thread. Very informative and educative. May your labour be blessed.

This snail farm na better business. Maybe one day I will do it.

what are you feeding them with

Well done sir.

Your progress is inspiring. I started a small snail garden about 2 months ago using 2 tyres and wild snails. Although I don't have time to maintain them (24 snails), I still feed them with lettuce & bell peppers left over from the farm.

From your post, I learnt they need calcium supplement. I might crush some egg shells and feed them with it.

Great work. Maybe I should start a thread on vegetable cultivation

U are doing well
