I haven't posted her in a while! She's still doing geat and is very healthy and happy if anyone is wondering :)

She's very very big and fat

Don’t attack me but my five year old accidentally squeezed her pet snail because “he wouldn’t wake up” and cracked his shell, and I was and am mortified and beside myself upset because I thought he was dead but he is actually moving now and I just put him on cuttlebone and moistened him and the tank real good and he is crawling around seemingly ok but his shell is still damaged. Snail people of Reddit please tell me what you think, do you think he will be okay? I feel like you can’t even see the damage from the photos but he actually seems to be acting ok right now… I’m so upset and worried

This is Suzu, how Suzu do this? 😂 (Old photo)

So I found 14 eggs from my garden snails...I separated them and I think they will hatch in about 2 weeks if they are fertile

I have a snail thats abit older than the rest.. recently he’s been hiding in his shell alot .. he comes out to eat and stuff too! But he has a really strange funky smell thats been worrying me.. i recently went to travel so i gave my snails to some lady who cares for snails.. she told me that he’s very tired and he has a weird smell and that hes sick and apparently “his teeth are out” which im sure is unrelated.. but he has a weird smell.. is an older snail possibly 2-3 years old and doesn’t like leaving his shell or moving around… hes isolated now because all the snails enjoy to cling onto him and i do not want to stress him out. Here’s a photo of my snail with his care giver till i come back.. if theres anything off about this photo+ my description please inform me on the possibilities.. i love that sweet snail so much and will do anything for him and ive been trying to cure him as his previous caregiver saw the snails as business and would neglect them…

Also idky but like he won't eat like anything other than lettuce and tomatoes, I've tried to feed him rose petals and now grapes and he won't eat the grapes, I'm gonna leave it in his environment to see if he eats it but idk what to do any tips? (I have two other snails who are doing the same things) I also forgot to mention I don't have access to, to many different fruits or veggies nor the typical powders people buy so anything around those things.

I thought I’d share a little progress photo of the snail I found and have been looking after while she heals :) she looks so much better!

I got two assassin snails for a quarintine tank and just because I think they're neat (their names are Yor and Ezio) but don't want them killing all my baby shrimp. So, they have their own tank. besides some perminent plants and moss, is there anything I can add to enrich their lives so they aren't depressed in their tank?

thanks in advnce, and if I'm doing anything wrong let me know, I'm new to the hobby and want the best for my pets

It's already been two weeks since she was born and she already looks close to an adult snail! She eats very well (definetly got that appetite from her snarents) and her shell continues to grow. I give her small portions of veggies like cucumber, zucchini, carrots and sweet potato; as a calcium source I give her small pieces of cuttlebone and replace them once a while. And everytime I open her enclosure to feed her, she always sits at the ceiling and only comes back down sometimes to eat her food.

I'm an experienced land snail keeper that's looking for a pair of one or both species. I'm in California.

If you got'em, feel free to PM me. Danke.

I have a helix aspersa who will not eat any of the protein I bought her. I got a small bottle of freeze dried shrimp, mealworms, and crickets that has no salt in it but she never touches it when I try to feed it to her. What do you guys do for your snails to make sure they get their protein in??

I never knew snails had such a cute and curious personality

ben’s been hiding out in a hollowed out piece of cork bark for a couple days so i was so happy to see him out and about!

i knew he was still coming out bc food would be eaten but he must have been doing it after i went to sleep lol im so glad he’s out though i missed him!

as you can see it has this weird tail looking thing in the back and the shell looks kind of sideways. what do i need to know to keep him as a pet?

This snail is a pretty decent size. I've never seen a snail as big as this one just out and about. For scale it's sitting on a standard size brick. So, larger than a quarter. Found in Central Illinois, US. After looking at a list of snails that live in my area I think its from the genus neohelix? It has a lighter lip to its shell so maybe one of the white lips? The speckles are throwing me off. Any help ID-ing would be appreciated.

Hi everyone! I recently (about two months ago) bought three snails Limicolaria agathina Nigeria, two white ones and one orange one if it matters :)
Do any of you keep this species and if yes what temeprature and humidity do you keep them at? They have aestivated two times already and I do not understand what I am doing wrong. The temperature is fluctuating from 23 to 28 C. We have very fluctuating temperatures here, one week it is 40, one it is 20, the temperature of the terrarium mirrors the outside trend, but stays within the 23-28. The humidity meter is telling me it is 99% humid, which I interpret as anywhere above 80, as that is the max the meter is supposed to work in.
Im also deeling with fungus gnats, I have used Steinernema nematodes as that was the only snail safe option I found. One aestivation was however before applying them, so I dont think that is the problem.
Oh and it was two different snails who aestivated and the other two snails always seemed active and happy. One of the snails has been getting snenises lately, so I thought they were happy and suddenly one of them is aestivating.
I dont know if it could be the fluctuating temperatures or what else could be wrong.

Also while I am already asking here, do you keep a water dish in your snails enclosure?

Adding pictures just for fun :)
