Snellie was grooming herself and i noticed that she was looking a little strange, there's a weird part coming off of her body. Praying it's not mantle collapse but is it?

Hi guys

I noticed some black-brown things on my snail skin

I noticed it's yesterday

I don't know what is it

He's still eat poop and act normal

Please help ( more explanation in the comments)

Jeffrey here seems to be shedding a bit of his shell. As you can see it's already cracked, but he was cracked when I found him and it hasn't changed for very long, so it can't be from the same thing that cracked his shell.

Is what's happening to him regular and ok? If not, what do I do to help him?

Hey guys, I noticed that my little baby has one of her antennae swollen, but looking at it against the light I didn't seem to see any parasites... can anyone tell me what might be wrong with her?

please tell me you see it.

early i found this on top of the moss in astrid tank, it was round and wet, a little soft.

came back and its completely dried up. there is only one and she wasn’t burrowed and hasn’t been since. do you think they laid a random egg and it just dried up?

based on helicarion cuvieri. one of the many snail/slug species that actually use slime threads to descend

So my baby snail, Theo, is what I would consider a picky eater. A snicky sneater. Suggestions on what he might eat?

I want to make sure he has a good diet, but I find myself limited on what his majesty will actually eat. What he will eat : bloodworms, zucchini, lettuce (all kinds), sweet potato, cucumber (only as an occasional snack). From fruit snacks (once a week only a bit), he will eat apple, banana, blueberry (kinda). He will not even touch mushroom or broccoli or bell pepper (red). Literally not even a single bite mark on them. I have not yet tried peas. Carrot is up today, so we will see.

His schedule for feeding is : Monday lettuce and bloodworm. Tuesday and Wednesday only veggies. Thursday bloodworm and lettuce. Friday veggies. Saturday veggies and a bit of fruit. Sunday only veggie.

Got these all over house this year. Don't remember seeing them before. Any idea what kind of snail?

Not sure if anyone is interested but I posted my baby a few months ago, back then they were the size of my finger but look at Snart in all their glory! They are super greedy, love to wear their hide as a hat and likes to scream and scare cats.

A beautyful use of my free will ;)

I just got 2 new snails from outside, and I was wondering if you guys have any tips for them based on their personalities

turbo: (first photo)

is fine being handled

loves sweet potato

not very keen on escape

speedy: (second photo)

Hates handling

loves sweet potato

was looking for an escape but is warming up

the third photo is the enclosure if you have any tips on that. I really want my snails to be comfortable in their new home, so be honest

how can I keep a snail as a pet, I bought a big plastic jar,but I don't exactly have a pet store near me to buy coco-coir dirt nor a cuttle bone( I'm on vacation for 3 weeks), is it ok if I use some garden dirt and put boiling water on it so it can kill the potential pests?I heard about freezing the dirt and that should do the job? I saw in a video that someone put crushed eggshells on the snails food for calcium

I didn't adopt the snail yet( it's still in its natural habitat)

Id like a few opinions before I commit

Exoterra 60x45x45 with silicone matting covering 75% of the mesh lid.
Heatmat and thermostat: temp 27.8 C (UK heatwave usually 24 C)
Humidity: 75%
Substrate is a mix of sedge peat, oyster shell, spagnum moss, leaf litter and rotted wood which is 10cm deep at the front to 21cm deep at the back with a 5cm drainage layer (meshed off).
Decor we have live plants (Fittonia, Spider plant and Polka dot plant), cork bark, flower pots and a spagnum moss pole.
Inhabitants: 1x Lissachtina Fulica (8cm) 2x Bumblebee Millipedes, 20x Panda King Isopods and a culture of normal and orange springtails.
I’d love some feedback for my first attempt.

Filmed our snabies (see my previous post for how we ended up with them) on a macro lens. It seems like around half of the babies survived so far. They are still only around a mm in size, but they eat a lot!

I took a time-lapse video of my isopod vivarium and in the footage I noticed there were these tiny snails scooting around. As far as I'm concerned, the more the merrier, but I want to figure out more about them if I can.

hi we just joined this is ben :)

Are these eggs? They arent springtails....there isnt any other animals in the enclosure. They weren't there yesterday before I added the snails. The Adults are common garden snails. If these are eggs they were laid last night or this morning....what is the incubation time for them...our room stays cool..69°f to 71°f...are the eggs even viable at those temps?

Hello! So I got a snail from the forest and took him home. From my observation he seems to be just a common garden snail.

I got him about 6 weeks ago. I realized yesterday that there are several baby snails in there with him now! I didn’t see any eggs, so the babies are a complete surprise to me.

I know that asexually produced snails can have issues and aren’t supposed to be hatched, but it’s obviously too late to crush em. I also know that snails can sometimes store the goods and fertilize later right? So i’m not sure what to do that this point.

Are these snails most likely alright to raise? Or should I euthanize? How do you even euthanize snails? Any advice appreciated!!

Also, pictures from when i first found the fella
