The passion for those snails keeps growing, I created a home for them
If you are not a compassionate person, you can only imagine how I feel about these little creatures. They are taking up much of my time now than ever; they are over two hundred.
In my last content on these little creatures, I mentioned that I am not sure I will create a house for them. Still, lately I changed my mind, I noticed most of them are stranded once it is daybreak and some heartless people will come pick them and eat them (tho they are healthy), I feel they are just too innocent to eat them so soon.
From my research, snail farming is a lucrative business, and people have suggested I start with this one because they actually grow good species, but mentally and emotionally I am ready, but physically I am not ready for that.
Just yesterday morning I came out and saw many of the snails stranded so I decided to create a little house for them, I used two yards of blue window net, placed it on the floor then I placed two used car tires on the net, I packed a good quantity of soil into the tires to make them comfortable, I also added some plantain leafs to make it the space look like the bush where they normally stay.
While I was doing that my neighbor came out and he said "You have started snail farming" and I replied "Yes mentally am ready but physically am not sure" yes physically am not ready because ot requires lots of time and money to take care of them.
After creating a home for them, I placed the food I bought for them which is watermelon, pineapple, yam pill, and water.
I started picking them up and placing them in the house I have built for them, and I felt like they were happy because immediately I placed them in the house they will run and start eating the food I kept for them.
They are actually growing bigger because I make sure they eat good food every night and I provide water for them.
Currently they have a little home for just a few, and I covered their home with same type of net underneath and I placed broken tiles on it so that they wouldn't run away.
Thats just a brief update on about the little creatures called snail that am in love with, stay tuned for more update.

Well, you can only protect them for a while. Many of us our here wants to eat them, after all they are food nah ššš.
Well it's one thing to want to keep an some animals as pest and another thing to desire a Lucrative business.
Please don't eat them yet, all them to grow, that's what am begging you all.
What! I like snails. They are so fascinating š¤© and it's really not easy keeping them. I hope you get to continue though, it's looking good already. Well done šš½
They have all gone I can't find them again, please come help me find them
Ah!
Snails are very harmless animals but so many people see them as food, it's a pity.
It's really great to see how much love and compassion you have also for creatures too š. You really made an amazing home for them and I know it wasn't easy for you but definitely made it all work together ma. Now they have someone who really cares about them and making sure they reach to the point of where they are matured and grown to eat because i know one thing they will surely enter the stomach one day tho š. Really interesting post āļø
