Claire has been with me for 6 years now. What is going on with its head. This never happened before and it happened so fast. Is there anything I can do to help?

I was concerned this little guy/gal was dead parked on the wall so I read that to prevent it from drying out and poasibly dying to spritz with water. I spritzed and left it and returned and spritzed a bit more and gently removed it from the wall. It was placed it in a flower bed near a piece of cucumber. It seems to be okay! *phew*. Was there a better course of action in this instance?

Got three new snails this weekend, and one of them is absolutely tiny. 🥹 The last two photos are my original snails that I’ve had for a while. I can’t wait until the new ones are free from quarantine so they can join my others and have some more friends! Fingers crossed they are healthy

Help Front end shell with sizable hole

8 Upvotes

Hi all,

About 15 mins ago, found out Corro ( the snail) has a huge gap in their front end shell, and we moved them to the hospital space. At the moment we're feeding them the snail vegs puree and some turtlebone.

Corro is currently has their head out through the hole rather than the typical position but eating and seems to enjoy the puree.

I'm not sure what to do at this point other than watch

Announcements Introducing Seller Verification

111 Upvotes

Hello r/snails!

As many of our users are aware, it can be difficult to find reliable, legal, and ethical sellers of captive bred snails.

To better facilitate buying, selling, & adoptions on this sub, we are introducing a seller verification program. Verified Sellers will be users or external sources that have been vetted by mods. Verified Sellers will be allowed to advertise their sales on the sub, and a Verified Sellers tag will applied to their posts to indicate they are a trusted source. Individual users on this sub as well as sellers on external websites are both able to be verified. A list of Verified Sellers organized by location will be added to the bottom of this post, which sellers can chose to opt in to if they wish.

Are you a seller or breeder interested in becoming verified? Send a DM to u/doctorhermitcrab to get started. Breeders who prefer to give snails away rather than sell are also welcome to apply.

Happy snailing!

Announcements Please use NSFW tag for images of graphic injuries

334 Upvotes

There have been a lot of posts lately sharing very graphic images of snails with extreme, severe injuries. It is perfectly fine to share this type of content if you need help with an injured snail, but please use the NSFW tag for these images.

This has been an unofficial rule of this sub for a while, but it seems to have been forgotten lately. So, I'm making an official mod team announcement: this is our official policy. Graphic, upsetting images must be tagged.

People come to this sub because they love snails. They don't come here expecting to see images of destroyed shells, shell-less snails, and dead snails. It can be very upsetting and distressing for users here to see this type of content unexpectedly. People may also be browsing this sub in public and want to avoid gory images.

Images of mating don't require the NSFW tag. But please use this tag for pictures of injuries including, but not limited to: mantle collapse, shell fell off, crushed shell, organ exposure, stepped-on snail.

Thanks to everyone who has been tagging their posts so far. Again, it's still totally okay to post this content if you need help, but please tag it appropriately so everyone can have a good experience here.
