by colonies i think u mean family a family consist of 1 male and four females and a family cost around 45k and aboveRearing pen
The grasscutters are kept in pens inside the rearing shed. The
number of
pens depends on the production objectives. It is recommended to
have one
breeding female per pen. The recommended surface area per
adult animal
in the pen is 0.2 m2.
one possible setup could include:
• A pen for fattening young grasscutters;
• A pen for adults;
• A pen for mating;
• A pen for giving birth and feeding the young.
The layout of the pens depends on the type of material used in
their
construction. Metal pens can be moved around, whereas brick
pens will
be fixed.
It is not recommended to use materials such as straw, bamboo,
wood or
matting because they can be eaten away by the grasscutters. The
pens
can be open or closed, whichever the producer prefers. There
should be
room to move around between the pens
