Just wanted to come here and say that you don’t want to get snails from outside as they can carry diseases.
Yes I’m looking for one so I need too know this
My son also has snails and he says snails sometimes eat tardigrades
Molluscophobic but I still watch this
What does thaw mean?
Thank you for this informative video! I’m researching Garden Snails before I adopt any so I don’t repeat the mistakes I made with my Goldfish. Don’t worry all my little Goldies are doing great now but I wasn’t prepared for them when I got the first one. Thankfully both of them seem very healthy ever since a kind person gave us the perfect fishtank. Anyway I’d love to raise a Garden Snail. I was also researching aquatic snails but I think a terrestrial Garden Snail would be a better place to start instead. I gotta pick up some pet supplies for my Goldfish soon so maybe I’ll grab a few things for a snail enclosure just in case I adopt one someday. I wonder if there are any snails in our garden. Maybe I’ll look some time, mostly out of curiosity.
Do you have a video about mystery snails?
love snail
Amazing
My snail just laid eggs send hep
do wild snails from outside have the same diets? theres this one timy snail thats always with its mother and i want to feed it.
I think they ley 100 eggs a year
Female or a male
I have a smell that is the water now it’s a whole
Thank you, this helped me a lot since I got 4 baby giant african snails yesterday 🙂
The salt on your hands is really bad for the snail
What kind of substrate should I use for my snail? I read that peat moss was okay but now I’m reading some comments that say not to use it
yo
Dang your so lucky apple snails aren’t legal here in Michigan i wish I could get one
do you sell them at your store?
can they eat milk weed
I still love my pet snails seed and seed Ling and Bell pepper
I would mention salt and starch too. It’s ok to feed snails with our own food, but only if it’s free from salt (or any spice like chili, black pepper and additives).
BTW one of my snails is crazy for egg shell but not really for the outside. Sometimes scrapes a little the outside too, but mostly munching on the membrane. Oh, and cat food! Usually I soak a few pieces of crunchy cat food in water or apple juice. When it is possible I give them some greens from the garden, there are some they really like.
For snails it is important to have enogh protein and CH too.
(Sorry, English is not my first language. 🙂 )
Can they still survive without any substrate?
thank you for making this video bc i have ten baby snails and one is from North Carolina
Where can I find these snails for sale?
I have 3 snails my smallest snail name is seed and my medium snail
name is seedling and my bigest snail name is bell pepper
What kind of salt do I feed it
IT IS SUPER IMPORTANT TO HAVE A CUTTLEBONE IN THE ENCLOSURE IF POSSIBLE!!!! Or eggshells or oyster grit, but the cuttlefish bone is much better of a choice.
i love my garden snails!
I love snails i had 10 but they died because they were in the sun too long
I go to my dads every other week would it be ok if I move the snails terrarium every week or would that be stressful for them?.
if you are wonering i was talking abaout my snails
Me and my friends found some garden snails outside and we put them in a big enclosure (7ft) and we just took some dirt from outside and put some leaves down. Then we found a log, we put that in, then we put some moss we found by one of my friends house and put that in the enclosure. Is there anything I should change or add and get a rid of?
My dad may get me snails for my birthday as I am starting get obsessed with them and he aid he’d love them too 😀
My dog pats way and we can’t get one yet so snails are a good pet
Can you please stop putting the snail on your skin it’s really bad for them
Do the eggs specifically have to be like a hatched egg from a bird, or is it able to just be a normal egg shell?
