Description

These introduced snails (originally from the Mediterranean)  are found in Southern Australia in large numbers, they spend much of their time in the wild huddled up in their shell with a mucus barrier to prevent desiccation. They emerge after or during heavy rain to feed. In captivity they should be kept on moist coco peat with little to no ventilation to encourage activity. They will move around and feed when new slices of cucumber or snail food (coming soon) is offered. You can offer cuttlebone or natural chalk as a calcium supplement and to help heal individuals with broken shells. These snails are insanely variable in appearance, with pure white, marbled and striped individuals. *Each photo is of an individual snail* Product includes – 5 x Snails (varied patterns)

    Beautiful snails, Im very happy with them!
    They got here very quick and came out to explore straight away, there was even an extra snail!
    The only downside was the delivery driver swinging the box around like an absolute mad man, when it clearly stated to handle with care..
    It is always gonna be a gamble with who will be handling your package though.
    I’m just happy they arrived well, despite the rough handling.
    Thank you so much 😊
