The difference a year makes !!

Found in MA if that helps

don't worry lil guy, Smelly's eggs are not your progeny.

Like the title says, just sharing my babies’ growth. The main one pictured is Hephaestus. Day one (not of birth, but when I got him) vs now.

I started with 5 tiny babies. Hephaestus, Pancake and Jorge are still here and thriving beautifully (the other two unfortunately were runts and had shell problems).

Jack is the youngest out of the three garden snails I have—by, “youngest,” I mean by a few days as I just found him recently. He’s currently munching on his cuttlebone.😊

Noticed a few mites on her yesterday and ordered some predatory mites which whould arive next week.

This clever girl has been finding every single way to sneak out of her box! Today we found her near the ceiling behind a plant in our bathroom so we’re taking action and we’re going to buy some plexiglass, put some holes into it and cover her terrarium
Just look at her face at the end!!

The only thing that I’m worried about is if this behavior is normal, even tho I know snails like to explore

made a cookie for my snails using oat, water, and some banana as a frosting!!

enjoy this time lapse of them munchin' away!

I found this snail in Southeast KS, it’s very tiny it’s also a landsnail, its flesh is like yellow and mostly translucent.

hi folks, just looking for some advice as I've noticed this unusual protrusion from my snail's mouth. This is an achatina fulica jade. Apologies if the photos aren't the clearest but it was quite hard to photograph.

I initially thought it was some big piece of substrate due to it appearing very thin & irregular but it has not moved in a few days. I've read about gut extrusions and similar things but this doesn't quite look like those.

Would really appreciate any info on this, thanks!

I found this little plant in my new tiny vivarium for my Subulina octona snails, which I just bought last week. I'm very impressed that it already grew so big, because usually my big GALs need 2-4 days to completely tear a living plant apart. So I'm very curious whether the plant will manage to grow even bigger, or if a tiny snail army will beat it up...who knows..

i woke up this morning to what i believe is snex ( correct me if i'm wrong )
have a few questions ! is that a love dart i see ? also one of them is clearly bigger than the other , i assume he's older right since he has the lip & the other one doesn't? will they both lay eggs? since one is younger, will it not be able to lay eggs? how long can i expect until they lay eggs?

Never ever took the time to look at snails or even think about them, always thought they carried disease until I actually held a little snail I found outside on my Window last week, it was very tiny .
They’re very alien like.
Anyway can they be dangerous? How do people keep them as pets / care for them ?
What species are beginner friendly ?
Can I accidentally hurt the snail without noticing or will it hurt me instead ?
Asking because I want one now 😑👍

Snailtholomew living life

I have slugs and snails in this enclosure it has some problems with water at the bottom but I'm slowly draining the water and the water smells like shit literally but the enclosure doesn't smell it smells like a forest but the worms they look like pinworms should I get rid of them and if so should I change the enclosure I have a good plan to change the enclosure and not taking the worms with by like luring them out with some high value food and moving all 40-50 slugs and snails slowly until non come to the food any more

I just moved into a house in Fort Wayne, Indiana. First thing I did was snail search. I’m from SC and have read extensively about the different species here. I was so excited! Unfortunately the last woman who lived here started a vegetable garden.( perfect for fresh veggies for snails☺️. My current snails are already so happy. I thought the huge plant was squash but NO. ITS CUCUMBERS!! She 100% snail proof this place but idk how. I see slugs but no thank you. I could literally be luring them to me and catch them before that cuc addiction starts. But how? How do I fix this?
Also if anyone lives in this area or around here could you please tell me where I can find some snails????
