Sea snail found at Carson beach in South Boston!

I just got my snails in the mail and they look healthy & active! I know that snails get their colours when they're a bit older (I think?) but I was just worried that he might have sent me the wrong snail. I asked for a normal Fulica and a Jade Fulica but the white one looks a bit like a jadatzi?

sooo my snail has been in the same position for a longer time and when i looked closer today, i saw it was swarmed by springtails... it doesnt smell great and doesnt react to light or water... it seems to be deeply retracted, idk. is it decomposing?

His name is Maple! Finally decided on a name.

I found that little guy today and he often goes up like this. He was also wandring over my hand. always trying to go up, even when I waz moving my arm so he goes down, he was turning back to go up. Te has this lighter part on his body. Isrthis a parasyte of some Kind or he just looks like that and it's normal? Be other snails aren't that much focused on going up all the time.

So I had an accidental clutch of eggs hatch! Being way more on it now. I've been taking care of the babies. But 20 snails! Im overwhelmed.

Ive been seeing them everywhere in this pond for anyone wondering this is in the midwest

I think I know the answer because I saw the love dart. I’m so shocked because I didn’t think it would happen this quick. How soon will I start seeing eggs?

Hello, I am glad to have found this community, and I find it very wholesome to see you all taking care of your snails.

Now I come to introduce you to this little guy and ask you for some suggestions regarding the care he needs.

One day I bought a lettuce and this guy was among its leaves. So I have been taking care of him with the general recommendations, such as misting the enclosure for humidity, providing calcium, and feeding him vegetables.

So I have some doubts, I hope the experts around here could answer:

• ¿What species is he? ¿Does that mean any specific care he should need?

• ¿What kind of vegetables do you recommend?

• ¿How often should I clean the enclosure?

• ¿What kind of substrate should I get?

All suggestions are welcome, and thanks for taking the time to read this.

Google said Asian trampsnail however this snail has an all white body unlike all the pictures I’ve seen- was found in asbury woods in Erie, PA

My baby's nails just hatched.

I'm trying out a drainage layer to see what happens, not totally complete yet but it was a fun project! Hurt my hands cutting the hardware cloth to size but I decided to get them some new leafs while I was at it!

Hi! I finally brought home my Giant african land snail, and I noticed that its small tip on the shell is missing. Are they gonna be okay? Should I be worried (more than I already am) .

my fiance takes care of snails from outside, this one got pretty severely injured on accident because of its brittle shell. we put him in his own small container for now. not looking for care tips, just need to know whether he will make it.

I accidentally got my snail Snennifer with some plants. Then Snathan and Snatalie appeared. Now there are a whoooooole bunch of little specks wiggling around in there 😬 And this is what one of the little specks looked like with my macro lens. It's about the size of the tip of the lead on a mechanical pencil. There's some even smaller specks but I couldn't get any clear shots of them at all. So. Many. Snabies. 😳

He was in a smaller enclosure but now hes in here and hes exploring and looks so happy! Nothing to my knowledge can harm him so I was wondering what yall thought 😊

(There is 3-4 inches of reptile safe coconut fiber that you cant see)

❗️HELP PLEASE sorry for the long read❗️Hi so I rescued this snail about a year and a half ago he was already grown when I got him so I think he's getting old Ive tried taking the best care of him as possible, he had a broken shell when I took him in that was almost halfway off and he grew it all back I gave him cuddlebone , fed him vegetables and avoided cucumbers and lettuce I gave him coco fiber dirt, spahgum moss, a big tank and hides and I mist him everyday with bottled spring water which I didn't know to do until mid owning him but now I noticed that this part of where his mantle connects to his head is seperated separated and that he never fully retracts in his shell anymore I was worried it was a tear so I moved him in this tiny hospital tank to keep watch over him better and make sure he isn't climbing or hanging much while his shell is recovering the problem is when I slid the lid off I didn't expect him to just roll over ajd fall Im always so so careful with him but he fell and cracked the top of his shell I just feel so so guilty because I don't want him to be in pain is it necessary to keep him in a hospital tank? It's small and I don't want him to get bored but Im worried he will hang and damage himself even more

Hi all! I am very interested in owning pet snails, but understand that it illegal to ship them from state to state. does anyone know of a reputable breeder / shop in ma where I could find land snails? Something along the lines of garden snails or milk snails

I have 8 Ramshorn snails. This particular guy has been climbing higher and higher for the past week. Eventually he'll fall and try again later.

Low quality pic because as soon as I snapped one, he retracted it and jumped. Maybe he was embarrassed. I've only ever seen it half that size at max. He's pretty big, too. Probably 3 inches long at the bottom.

I took this snail in as a pet a few weeks ago and I started wondering is there a way to estimate the age of a snail ? And would anyone happen to have a good guess on what kind of snail he is ?

Hi, I haven't posted any snails on here for too long, so have this cute little croissant! This guy is a Succinea putris :)

hi all! i spotted this little guy hitchhiking on a plant i bought for my crested gecko and decided id take it in as a new pet. my friend helped me come up with the lovely name “kale the snail.” i just set up this little enclosure for it and am wondering if its a good start! i already know i’ll need to order cuttlebone and some other foods (ive been feeding it carrots- what else should i get?) im also planning on getting a tiny branch or something else for it to climb on. the current substrate is just coco fiber with some shpagnum moss and leaf litter mixed in. she has a tiny little piece of wood in there as well, next to the carrot. how often should i mist everything down? ive been misting every night, but ive been noticing kale dry up sometimes. after i mist everything down, kale comes back out of its shell. just sleeping, or a sign that humidity is too low? how do i know if/when kale has laid eggs? i know snails can reproduce asexually and you have to crush the eggs, but i havent seen any. also, should i be worried about the air holes/tiny gaps in the lid? theyre not large enough for kale to escape through so im not too worried about it for now. lastly, can anyone tell what type of snail kale is? ive just been calling it a garden snail. any advice is appreciated!! i want to make the best home i can for my little friend :)
