I don’t stop for anybody except police/lasma. Any man born of a woman who dare try such with me will either live with legs broken or leave the earth.

boygeorge:


You don't rear snails picked from the bush sir. There are hybrid snails meant for production

if you checked the thread well, I stated that I have decided to buy AMO and AMS snails

boygeorge:


I hope.you treated your soil?
Good you made the gutter. But hope.it goes round the whole pen? If not ants will kill all your snails in one night. If your gutter goes the pen, pour a mixture of water and engine oil in it. This will prevent or trap ants and insects that might want to cross into the pen.
Again I ask, hope you treated your soil?

Wish you God's speed

yes it’s treated. I left the trench because of the oil mixture. I won’t be introducing the snails until a month or 2… I have to let the crops and banana grow abit. I will use that pending time to battle insects.

It seems this man is from ijesha

yeah in the long run, but I want to focus on productivity for now.

Skibani99:

How much snails can this accommodate..

it should be able to house 5000 snails. Once it’s getting crowded l will convert my fish pond to baby snail nursery pen.

Taking shape already

Small gutter so waste water won’t stay stagnant.

Question for the house
Is black engine oil another cheap alternative to wood treatment oil?
And I have decided to stock the greenhouse with 300 AMO snails (POL) and 200 table size snails.

Update....
Wood is here
I later decided to use 2by4 wood for the 4 angle poles
wood treatment against termite #1500

Why not buy a kerosene lantern, it will serve as light and heat source, you should be able to use 1 litre of kerosene for a week.

Good morning my people
Let me give a breakdown of what I’ve spent so far.
80, 6”blocks at the rate of #270 each
2 bags Cement #4200 each
A bundle of net #8000
Some Vegetables seed #1000

I will be buying 2by3 wood, tyrod and nails later today

Princeadebayo11:

Okay... You mean those big ones or small small ones

manually made 6 inches blocks

How much for your point of lay snails

Work continues tomorrow

Foundation laid

Princeadebayo11:
Please make this thread well detailed including expenses to construct the house and money to get the snail... I am planning on owing one also

so far I have gotten 80 blocks and 2 bags of cement, I plan to source for my snails locally I.e picked from the bush...

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.
