Late night introduction inside heavy rain lol.
I bought the snails at 400 each.
My mom collected 10 pcs for dinner lol.
That's 60k per 150?

Pls do.
Akposy:
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

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.

Thanks for sharing

Hmmm..... rearing snails? .... to eat?? I learn something new today. OP... I have absolutely no intention of rearing snails ... nor eating them.... that's disgusting to me. But I can't resist following this your thread .... it is very interesting.... detailed ... informative ... educative.... and inspiring. I never knew snails laid eggs ... never thought about it.... just know snails be around... somehow. I respect you for getting up and doing something for yourself ....starting from small. If this very idea is put to lunemployed youths ... I can bet my life at least 90% will say they can't... they don't have capital .... like N300K minimum needed. To open a thread on your first time adventure shows confidence.... and determination to see it through to the end because we will be after you. Many here already forgot you're a novice... asking you questions as if you're a pro... take it as a compliment. I am following... really wishing you success. The one thing I know for sure about snail farming... if they get away overnight.... they wouldn't get far by morning... few fast ones would be about to leave the yard!
