Ventrata

LOL[:D] That's a Nepenthes x ventrata, hence my username. A tropical pitcher plant sometimes known as a 'Monkey Cup'. It is a carnivorous plant and loves to catch it's own flies & wasps. Carnivorous Plants are my hobby.[:)]   p.s. Actually looking at the avatar, it's not as clear as it would be with a full sized photo, maybe I should have used a Venus Flytrap instead[:$]

Many thanks Will &Pierre ZFP for your replies, I have since managed to find some French Snail Rearing Forums. A couple were terrible to navigate but through one of those I found a really good forum with identical layout to another non-France related forum I use. I even managed to change the settings so everything is in English - except the posts of course. Have been reading and translating some of the posts with some difficulty & will try to ask some questions there in due course. Cheers, P.S. Terrible jokes Pierre[:D]

Firstly, hello everyone, this is my first posting. A question about the feasibility of setting up a snail farm in France. Have searched this forum and done various web searches with no info found I’m not talking about the technical side of snail farming, I have that all under control, I’m thinking about: 1. Restrictions (if any) on using my land as a snail farm 2. Do I need a licence to do it or permission. 3. Any restrictions on selling the produce 4. Any grants available Etc. etc. If anyone has any info I would be very grateful. If not, does anyone know where I would likely find the information, there must be a “department for snail farming” somewhere in France, LOL.[:D] Currently in the UK. Have house in Charente but will possibly be moving to Normandy. Many thanks.
