Types of pens to consider in snails farming

Trench  pens Description Trench  pens  are  adjoining  snail  pens  of  0.6  ×  0.6  m  to  1  ×  1  m,  either  dug  into  the  ground (which  must  be  very  well-drained),  or raised  40-50 cm  above  the  ground.  Outside  walls and  inner  partitions  consist  of  sandcrete  blocks  or  mud  bricks in  either case.  The  pens  are filled  with  suitable  soil  to  a  depth  of  10-15  cm.  They  are  covered  with  wooden  or  steel frame  lids with  chicken  wire  plus nylon  mesh,  and  fitted  with  padlocks  to  discourage poachers.  Obviously  the  pens  must  be  protected  against  the  fierce  heat  of  the  sun  or heavy  rain.  Shredded  semi-dry banana  leaves  may be  spread  in  the  pens  to  provide shelter  for  the  snails.   Drawing  2:    Two  types  of  trench  pens.     A:  dug  in  trench  pen,  B:  raised  trench  pen Trench  pens  are  suitable  in  semi-intensive  to  intensive  snail  growing  ventures.  They  can  be used  as  hatchery,  nursery  or  fattening  pens,  with  the  number  of  stock  being  adapted  to the  size  of  the  snails  in each case.  The  snails  can be  moved  from  one  pen  to  another according  to  the  growing  cycle. Advantages  and disadvantages The  main  advantage  of  a  trench  pen  system,  whether  sunken  or  raised  above  the ground,  is  its flexibility.  Snails  can  be  moved  around  easily, in accordance  with  their  size  and  phase  in  the  growing  cycle.  The  snails  are  always  easy to locate, for feeding, handling, and selection for final sale and consumption.
