Snail incubation and cold protection in Ireland

Hellotree · 2016-12-21 16:42:12

Hi, Does anyone know how I could protect snails against the frost? How would I incubate them in Ireland? Is it necessary? I am about to start snail farming and could do with all the advice I can get. I look forward to hearing back from you

What sort of heating systems are ye using for incubating the eggs? And also when you bring them into a shed for breading, do you have to have that kept at a constant 20° also? Or is thst just for incubating? Thank you.
