How to Build A Grasscutter Cage by FarmBusiness(m): 9:28pm On Aug 09, 2014 |
Rearing pen The grasscutters are kept in pens inside the rearing shed. The number of pens depends on the production objectives. It is recommended to have one breeding female per pen. The recommended surface area per adult animal in the pen is 0.2 m2. one possible setup could include: • A pen for fattening young grasscutters; • A pen for adults; • A pen for mating; • A pen for giving birth and feeding the young. The layout of the pens depends on the type of material used in their construction. Metal pens can be moved around, whereas brick pens will be fixed. It is not recommended to use materials such as straw, bamboo, wood or matting because they can be eaten away by the grasscutters. The pens can be open or closed, whichever the producer prefers. There should be room to move around between the pens Nigeria Grasscutter Pen Architectural Drawing/ Design Grasscutter Pen Construction Proper design and construction of Grasscutter Pen is critical to the success of a commercial Grasscutter farming.

cages can be built with wood but it should be covered with mesh wire to prevent gnawing. Grasscutters gnaw on everything even metal. |

The main reason grasscutters are now preferred by some farmers for rearing purposes is because they are easy to house and you don’t buy food for them as you do in fish, poultry and pig farming. Grasscutter is also called is a stress-free, profitable venture that will stimulate fast income without having to go to bed with one eye opened like say poultry business. 1 Like |

adeblow:Here is the cage dimension for a family: height= 40cm, width= 60cm, lenght= 200cm and four partitions of 40cm with a passage way of abouth 15 x 15 cm. The partition separating the male from females shouldnt have a passage way. Be sure to use the right materials becos grasscutters gnaw on eveeything. 1 Like |

Re: How to Build A Grasscutter Cage by fayahsoul: 10:30pm On Mar 25, 2015 |
adeblow:Since female grsscuttrs are induced ovulators, the continuos presence of a male among females could interfere with their ovulatory cycle. Only introduce the females to the male when they are ready to mate. Metal cages are expensive. If you havent started construction then i suggest you use a mix of wood and mesh wire but if you have started or prefer metal cage then make sure the mesh size isnt bigger than 1/2 x 1/2 inches so as to prevent new borns from falling through and also lay another smaller size mesh wire on the floor of the cage to prevent feed waste. Allow about 3-4inches of space between ground and floor of cage for collecting waste. I will try to post a pic. |
