Introduction to Snails

The kind of snails that you can farm are snails that live on land, and there are many kinds of land snails that are good to eat. ¹

However, some kinds of land snails are not good to eat and they may even make you very, very sick.

When you are ready to get snails, perhaps you can get them by gathering wild snails that live near you.

Creating a Snail Farm

A good place for a snail farm is one where there already are snails. If there already are snails, you will know that the soil and the water in the soil are right for snails to live and grow. ²

If you have the right kind of soil with the right amount of water, you can bring good snails from another place to start your snail farm. ³

Snail Marketing

The amount of snail meat that you will get from small snails will be about the same as what you would get from large snails. This is because you will use many more small snails than large snails and the meat will be about equal.
