When entering the world of snail raising many questions and unknowns that must be cleared. One of the most important is to know where start with the breeding of this animal. According to the literature on the subject there are two main methods by which you can choose to: Launching
with Helix aspersa fry
newborns is a system consisting of the purchase of newly hatched fry or a few days of life - less than a week, for introduction into the park and postrerior fattening. The advantages of this system lies in the uniformity of growth snails, which llearĂ¡n the park with 4 mm and less dispersion over the entire process, so all the "harvest" includes almost simultaneously.
other hand we find in this system too existing farm unit producing fry, existing mortality in moving themselves and the unavailability of these fry at any time of year.
Players Started with Helix aspersa
is a system consisting of the acquisition of breeding snails for introduction into the park. The helicicultor enter the amount of 20-25 players per square meter of land useful for last 30-45 days (after acclimatization at the farm) born the first fry, fry to repopulate the entire extension system has the advantage terreno.Este Players use a dual purpose: first would be like playing and the second, following his release, as snail consumption. Moreover, the removal from the place of origin to the destination farm causes less mortality. In contrast, the absence of synchronization in their egg dispersion in the diameter between individuals is greater, which makes their collection, unless using an appropriate collection method, with a consequent increase in labor. Initiation
larger fingerlings
Finally, a very appropriate farming system for those who start the breeding of snails or as an option for faster rsultados be buying fry are larger than newborns - between 10 and 25 mm. In this way, they avoid nearly all the disadvantages of the two. Snail harvesting accelerates as they reach the destination farm with approximately 25 days (10 mm) / 80 days (25 mm) of life and have passed the most critical period - the first 3 weeks, remember that the snail is ready for consumption at about 4 months ago.
