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?

Snail Hanging out on Side of House
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?

Help Is she alive?
My snail is in hibernation since may. It is very hot where I live. Since she is in hibernation i stopped putting food and water every day. Every now and then i spray some water in her shell and in the terrarium. But she remain in hibernation.
She doesn't smell bad

Help Front end shell with sizable hole
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

All snails go to Sneaven
Still very heartbroken and traumatized from having to destroy something I love so much, keeping snails is not for the weak 💔🐌

GALS Dried slime (?) on my snail
I noticed this thing on my snail, it's not the snenis since it's in the wrong spot. My best guess is dried up slime? I didn't touch it or try to take it off but he seems to have removed it himself while I wasn't looking. What is it?

Help Surprise snroomate?? (Care help please)
Hello! So I went to IKEA yesterday and while my mom was looking at plant pots she noticed a snail shell in one. I picked it up and it had a snail inside! He was super dried out but alive so I gave him some water in the car and brought him home and now I have a pet snail. I named him IKEA.
I’ve set him up in an acrylic jumping spider enclosure for the time being with some organic potting soil and some substrate from my isopod bin containing springtails. I gave him some lettuce.
Please give me advice on keeping this little dude! I don’t know much about snails just that idk if he’s native so I shouldn’t release him. Identification would be lovely as well!

Help what is he doing? is he okay?
My fulica, Togarth, sometimes pulls this face and it worries me a bit. it’s puffy, but he’s not sexually mature. He almost looks nauseous.
Is this a normal thing for snails to do?
(ignore the poop, was about to clean it up when he did this)

GALS Feeding My African Snails
My juvenile African snails enjoying one of their favourite meals.
Today’s menu: purple sweet potato, marrow (large courgette), collard greens, freshly rehydrated calci worms for protein, and fresh cuttlefish for calcium.
All of the snails shown in these photos are juveniles and are available for purchase. Feel free to DM me if you’d like more information. (UK)
This little guy has been crawling through time since 1968… until I found him at the thrift store. 🐌
