I'm so amazed with their growth and how pretty they are that another lot of pictures are on the way.

No.... although I think you could make a lot of money with your idea. I've seen videos of people being BSed to believed having snails crawling on their face made their skin good in a special way and they paid 100 dollars for it... :P |

I just felt it grind its scraper tongue thing on the tip of my nail, only once though. Maybe it found something interesting but they eat everything so it wouldn't surprise me if it just fancied a snack. Oooh maybe I can train them to eat dead skin off feet like those fish, a pedicure and moisturiser in one. lol. |

Ok did think they were kinda sweet, but now.... not so much!
I feel even more ill looking at the pictures now! Why would they try and eat your finger nails unless you have some grubbyness under them XD |

They seem to like it, I run the shower tepid and let it splash my hand which then splashes them and they head straight for the water. They are mucky monsters so I clean their RUB and their shells once a week. I am now just putting a whole lettuce in for them a week, they seem to enjoy climbing into the middle and eating their way out. They also destroy a cuttle bone every few weeks too.

Gosh they have grown! They are pretty but how can you have them in your hand! Even looking at them on your hand makes me feel a bit pukish. |

Well they are even bigger now, again taken a few pictures after their shower (yes I give them a shower).

Yeah they have a heat mat. Its at 25oC on the back wall, they only ever go snuggle to it when it drops really cold though as it doesn't do a vast amount for the heat in the tub but room temp seems to be fine for them. |

Its a real shame that the beautiful colouration of the shells don't stay like that all their life. |

Oh yeah most nights I fall asleep to grating noises, they have 2 cuttle bones in now too . Their shells are incredible, the pictures dont do them full justice, you can only just make out the lines as they put down a bit more shell then they switch colour every now and again, they are laying a pale bit now but will switch to dark red/brown again soon. It amazes and baffles me how they do it. |

The shells are gorgeous on them,when I think what a terrible state their parents shells were in....poor things!
The school were non too happy when I brought them back with a care sheet attached to their tub etc,talk about if looks could kill!!
I bet you can really hear them grating away at the cuttlefish now can't you! |

Get some, mine only cost me a few pound for the cuttle bones, the food they eat is left over dog food, left over Gecko food and leftover my food. They are perfect waste disposal units. |
