As far is housing is concerned, your snail farm could be extensive,semi-intensive, or intensive, in increasing order of complexity, man-agement and financial inputs. Three options might be considered:
1. Extensive system: outdoor, free-range snail pens.
2. Mixed, or semi-intensive system: egg laying and hatching occur in acontrolled environment; the young snails are then removed after 6-8weeks to outside pens for growing or fattening or both.
3. Intensive: closed systems, for example plastic tunnel houses, green-houses and buildings with controlled climate.
