New homes wanted for some GALS that I have taken in because their previous owner could not care for them. Very easy to care for. Lots to choose from, over 200! Will post out if cost of p+p is met. http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x332/red12311/snails/100_1083.jpg" border="0">
And this is the size they will eventually get to.

I use plastic storage boxes http://www.wilkinsonplus.com/plastic-storage-/crystal-storage-box-and-lid-clear-45ltr/invt/0285602/?htxt=F%2BaRsA4B8DCApJnblsUR9g6mH3QY0ALW%2FScYQ64ZzrNPudp679z2kQU96chHScEhJVcWsD5d9pW4%0A0Veky6uZOg%3D%3D like this. They seem quite happy in this type of box and nice and easy to clean out and alot cheaper than a RUB. |

i'm probably sounding a bit naive lol, what sort of conditions do they need, what do they feed on, i can see carrot sticks but what else, obviously you can keep more than one together - is this what they like or do they prefer to be alone, are they big breeders, do they give birth to live young/eggs etc
I know absolutely nothing about this species except they have a shell |

They like moist conditions, so substrate can be coir, compost (no fertilizers)and moss and sprayed with a mister once or twice a day. They love most vegetables and fruit but especially like lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes and courgette. They need a cuttle fish to munch on for the calcium for shell growth. They breed worse than rabbits, laying upto 300 eggs at a time every 2-3 months sometimes. Its best to collect the eggs and place in the frezzer for 48 hours or you end up with hundreds like these people did. These snails prefer to live in groups and will not move about much or eat much if on their own. They will live at room temps unless they are kept in a very cold house in the winter in which case a small heat mat taped to the side of the tub would be needed. Oh and they are hermaphrodites. |

i'm presuming the eggs are visable to be able to collect, i'm asking as my lovely daughters very interested in them, but i obviously don't want to take on something that i don't know what i'm doing. Would it only be p+p you're after for them, i'm presuming if i used a RUB i would need to put air holes in the same as with the snakes |

Most tubs/RUBS are fine as long as they have air holes in the lid. The eggs are easily seen they look like pale yellowish peas and the snail burrows in the substrate to lay them. So a quick look underneath the tub/RUB every week and if any eggs are present scoop them up and freeze them. Yes its just p+p. £5 will cover p+p (depending on address) unless you would like all of them LOL. |
