By your estimates, how much will it cost you? I am trying to do a comparative analysis with my own plans.
actually, i dont intend to go for free range of a thing, its too expensive for me. i was looking at a construction in terms of a very big room. it will be roofed like a normal room. it can contain 50,000-100,000 snails. two of it should be okay. so, with this kind of a thing i think 250-350 thousand should be okay for me.

1. your point of lay should start laying eggs as soon they start mating. some can even lay eggs same week you stock them ( they must have been fertilized b4 you get them).
2. Usually, for AA, the eggs hatch 2-3 weeks after laying, with a range of 10-31 days, depending on temperature. A. achatina has a high hatching rate of 90+%; even 100% hatch-ability is not uncommon. for AM, The incubation period, from egg to hatchling, is around 4 weeks. also depend on temperature.
3. get from another farmer in lagos or someone that can get it from the village. dont buy from the market cos the rate of mortality will be damn high.

30k wont be enough for you to have a decent and your stock. you can still manage a 50k. the number of snails you can stock depends on your money. but the size of your pen will determine tha to avoid overcrowd.
