I just stumbled on your channel today and I'm already addicted to it. The difference between your channel and many others is that you respond to questions accordingly and tell people lot of secrets others don't do. Keep it up! I'm sharing the channel already. It must hit a thousand before the month end! Note; is groundnut cake not same as kuli kuli that most producers of it nowadays now add lots of sugar and salt? But I learned salt is a no go area for snails!
@zenaksnailfarm

Thanks for the compliment! You're quite right...salt is a no go area for snails. Most groundnut cake (kuli kuli) only contain a trace amount of salt which isn't enough to harm snails. I suppose its possible some producers in Nigeria can add a lot of salt in their kuli kuli to make it more appealing to consumers. Its difficult to guard against that..I guess what I'd do is to buy the groundnut cake direct from feed mills that produce theirs specifically for animal consumption. I've personally fed my snails with feed made with groundnut cake and it didn't harm them so concentration levels matter

My snails are not eating well as they used to eat. The are fed regularly with egg shell mixed with maize, moringa, millet and potato leaves. Sometimes l give them cocoyam leaves, pawpaw leaves and fruits, and other vegetables leaves like okra, etc. The mothers have stopped laying for the past three months why?

This is the dry season. Snails priorities survival over egg laying because the relative humidity of the air around them is very low. They don't want to dry out. Its best to let them hibernate/sleep.

I used sundried maize but you can also use roasted if that's what you have available to you. Just be aware that the roasting process might lead to some loss of certain heat-sensitive vitamins, such as vitamin C and thiamine (vitamin B1). In addition, the energy content of roasted maize may be slightly higher due to the concentration of nutrients as moisture is removed during the roasting process.

@zenaksnailfarm

Vitamins/Minerals are micronutrient that also happen to be present in varying quantities in Maize, soybean and Groundnut cake E.g groundnut cake contains vitamin E, B (such as niacin and folate). It also contains anywhere from 10 to 20% of dietary fibre by weight, as well as minerals like phosphorus, iron, zinc, potassium and magnesium etc If you can get your hands on Vitamin premix from feed mills then all the better. But if you can't, you can always adjust the percentage of the rest of the feed components to compensate. You can also give your snails fruits from time to time so they get those vital minerals/vitamins

@zenaksnailfarm
Жыл бұрын
Groundnut cake, which is a byproduct of peanut oil extraction, typically does not contain added salt during the production process. However, there may be trace amounts of naturally occurring sodium in the peanuts themselves. These natural sodium levels are generally very low and are not a threat to snails.
