Snails are rich and very proteinous in nature but some people may not like snails the way others would like snails. Just like how some love sea foods like crabs while others think it a bag of junkπŸ˜….

Here in the southern part of west Africa, this are not just protenous but very costly in the market so if you would want to go into farming and keeping snails, it will be very profitable. This farm here is just a commercial farm for home use alone. And I made this article to show us how I farm my snails. Hope you enjoy it.

Snails could mostly be located under leaves and in moist places during a rainy season so I pick up snails and make a home for them inside a porous and ventilated pot like the one in the picture below to keep them ventilated.

this will serve as their home for the main time while they are under my care until they are needed for some other purpose.

make a pond with a bowl of water and allow the snails to move around and wash themselves.

They would eat almost green leaves of any kind and this is one of their favorite leaf the "asuza" and luckily I have a farm full of asuza leaves.

I just allow them within some leaves and keep an eye on them so they don't disappear πŸ˜….

After the fun fair, they are taken back into the porous pot with some of the asuza and that could last them up to 3 or 5 days then I can pay them a revisit.

They are kept in a well ventilated area preventing too much sunlight but more of breeze.

This is how I farm my little and big snails and I hope you enjoyed what you saw, thanks for your time and support too do have a great day.
