Hi
For whoever would get to read this
Please do not jump into Snail's
They're not always as easy as they make them seem
They don't get to breeder sizes in 3-4 months,mehnn stop saying that
Stop over quantifying profit's
Talk about the pests and diseases
Talk about the negative side to it we've still not worked on to get good solution's
Talk about the fact that the Curtain system is a foreign system that doesn't always work in Nigeria, cause the Curtain system was worked on for Helix Aspersa snail's not Achantina's
Let's start talking about the many defaults to it cause we've only been told about the goodies
Different locations with different atmospheric conditions, making something's unexplainable cause it worked for so so so and not working for so so so
Talk about the fact that caging them doesn't always go fine and we've not really worked on medicinal aspects to snail's issues or a more curative concept
Before you venture into that lovely structure, remember this,Snail's are native to somewhere and we have to inculcate that condition well

One other thing
Let's try being truthful
Sometimes the unconventional methods work just fine more than the technical ones
Also I see soo many figures
Start asking if it is attainable, if it has been attained,cause the truth is most of us never keep records yet we round up ridiculous figures
At times most of us don't even pay attention to little details yet we quantify beyond measures.
I'm sorry if I'm vexing anyone but let's start trying to find solutions to the unforseen and stop making people rush into it if we can't give them a precise solution we've tried that worked on the same scale.
Stop over reading about Snail's on popular blogs,the unpopular ones at times have the truth in it.
Ask these Farmers why most of them won't farm AA's
Ask them why they've succumbed to just AM's (cause they're stronger?)
And then you start making people go for just one type when we can actually try to figure out how to Farm our prominent snail species better
Some people have started giving the excuses that AA's are not native to Nigeria
Sebi they entered Plane to migrate here abi.

I like shutting up most times
But when you read this and you feel you're having issues with your Snail's, go ahead to write it down here
Let others also do the same
Let's try seeing similarities, maybe,just maybe we can start trying out some curative thing's.
I know it's long but I know also that it's worth it

I reason with you bro, there was a time I kept recording mortalities.....No one was able to give a workable advice aside just clean d pen and other normal stuffs.......i was told my 50pcs of point of lay will lay 10 eggs each(AM) twice a month....yet I barely get up to 50 eggs a month. The sugar-coating is too much

I understand and really feel the disappointment you have gotten. As an agribusiness person with vast years of experience in many livestock's mostly the Snail as one, there is no way you can make any profit in Snailry under months. As a trainer and facilitators practising one not internet farmer there bus no way you can make any profit in snail farming even in a year unless if you join the business of it and this business will boom if there is ready buyer of the snail most if it is in the raining period anything aside this it require building your stocks for nothing less than a year that is if you are sure and certain that the breeds are pure. Most startups in Nigeria especially in agriculture lovethe packaging putting in agriculture by many selling the internet knowledge to them. I can say it well that farming is not like that. It require deligency and patience. If farming is not your call you can't survive in it beause if not a fast break forth business as many always thing but if you love gradual development you are the one who can enjoy farming. Most of the internet farming has sugar coated mouth which makes it look like MMM and at the same time many that rush into it want money doubled under days or week whereas is not so. Profitability of farming is in the knowledge you are selling not the practical again or the field. The field is just an means of surviving moistly if there is no huge input capital and is not as you put the capital you will star making the profit it require time like many months if not years. Am a long user of nairaland I lost my former page to log in which is still exist here you can check to see some of the write ups i have posted here through Nicogen4us to have some thing to build your mind towards agriculture generally. Thanks

Nice one sir. the most headline about snailery always come with make millions,make this and that why neglecting and covering the future hazard that are related to the Farming.
I have seen where a farmer is making illustration about AM laying more than 200eggs per clutch on Facebook, I was sad and weak that day because it was totally lies..
you will see something like Snail don't Sick, Make millions at your Backyard �� in there adverts and unfortunately large numbers of people will still joined there training..

after all, Nigerians love anything that's sugar coated without questioning the Reality

snail farming is lucrative but it takes years for one to start making money from it. Most of these internet farmers have deceived many to believe that they can make money immediately. Snail farming is a difficult one but requires patience.

wow,this looks interesting am tired of all these internet farmer,but on a more serious note I want to ask this question,let's say if a snail us averagely taking care of,it will take like how many months to grow from eggs to table size

I'd just say this here
I'm not trying to drag knowledge with anybody but I,can guarantee you that bring 10 of the best Nigerian Snail Farmers you've ever met,I know as much as they do about s nails and I'd still say this,Nigeria has the lowest snail research in the World.
I'll practically point out soo many things about it.
At times the practice keeps you off guard and you're just really blank as to why something happened.
I believe if we choose to turn Snail Farming into a regular Farming,technicalities would have to be involved.
S nails can have one of the highest mortality rates in livestock farming as seasons change and leaves some experiences off guard
Experience isn't the thing if we've still not worked out possible multiplication.
I shook my head when I got to know some top Snail Farms in Nigeria aren't even breeding our indigenous species.

So I will say this again with practical multiple evidence
Not now,not in the next world would our native AA or an AM reproduce even 10 eggs at once,please I beg you don't come at me,we've still not worked out precise aphrodisiac supplements and concise informations on conducive atmospheric regulations,don't tell me about the 23°c you read on the net.

Let me give you an advice
Work out an 80% extensive 20% Semi intensive approach for your snail Farm
Accountability here is almost zero but at least you can note progression,till we do a viable research,I think we should hold on on full semi intensive

Systems differ
I noted about 0.5cm increase weekly on the Juveniles using my snail feeds,at times it could be higher but they were overpopulated and I couldn't do a full time documentary.
This was under a Semi Intensive
Your feeding plan for any system you intend using would say how long or short it can grow
For AA's though at times it's a bit quicker for their growth cause there's an obvious consistent shell growth every week
So say about 9 months but like I said I've not done a full time documentation
It's not beans,I think for the aim of just documentation and improvement research be ready to spend money

I fully agree with you,with the fact we have weak feasibility studies

I almost ventured into snail farming during the lockdown solely because I couldn't afford the price of roasted snail during my date.Damn It was a deal breaker mehn. The only mistake I made was that I didn't map out a business plan and I didn't know anything about snail farming, I just go farm dy find anything wey resemble snail. I actually included those white small small ones
I got a serious laugh lashing from mom and cousin when I got home. Na so local man discarded the idea. But nevertheless, after going through your writeup I feel like I can still do it.
So Op let's start by you telling me what AA and AM are?

Since you don't know the difference in species
Next time when you pick the s nails
Rear only the big ones,each the rest,that way you'll at least know those ones are good for Farming cause of their sizes and their off springs will also be like them
That's the free advice I can give you

Apt and witty post, I have once written about many snail farming infomercials and debunk some of their erroneous claims. Hopefully, I can try to dig out the post and share again here.

Unless you combine snail farming with business aspect of it, it takes time to make money from snail farming.

I hope to share my experience so far as snail farming and snail business are concerned.

There is money in Snail Farming
But the information is different from what is put out
So they say you don't need much capital to be that "millionaire"
Na lie,the measure you give is the measure you would receive
Combining Snail Farming with the business true so it can cover up running cost but if you can afford the running cost from elsewhere
You're not meant to take from your Snail Farm in the first 2 years
I can give a feasibility study that is very very workable but it still boils down to "the measure at which you put in....."
The most important thing,connecting with the right people with the right knowledge or else your big money can still waste

If you think Snail Farming is a bad business,follow up on the Snail data for this year
E go shock you
The scarcity caused a static inflation all year round

We need to tell Fulica sorry
It got to one point this year ehn
I saw the gold in Fulica
And all these years of negligence and focusing on only Margi's and Achan's not knowing we'll still beg to have Fulica
All 3 species are good
Some seasons will make it shock you
Make I use this one do ipolowo
First there is nothing in FreeTown
I no dey do NGO
In case you want to think of investing in Snail Farm,I've got workable practices for you,either big money or small money,there's a scale for everyone
Snails are lovely okay
I know you might have failed in it
I know you're being skeptical about it
But give it this one last trial
You can put me on your Consultant list really,I know a bunch about it
Let's bring back Snails
They don too cost

My bill is high o
If you don't mind
Type yes and we can move forward

JOACHINpedro:

I'm just seeing this sef
Your budget o
Your budget determines your best containment
For me
I look out for containments that can ease stress off me.
And it comes with its quote.
Containment is basically anyway to keep them from running
How you go about it depends hoogely on your budget
