#pet snails
My garden snails, Gerald and Geraldina, laid eggs which hatched today! Now my terrarium is full of little baby Geraldlets!

I love all my pet snails! These are just some of them! In the first picture is (from right to left) Grizelda, Hazel (above), Patchy (below), and Olive, and in the second picture is Gerald. The first four are mystery snails, a species of freshwater snail, and Gerald is a garden snail.
Gerald in his picture is sporting his horny head lump, which is used by snails to try and attract mates by emitting a scent (apparently). He’s currently trying to woo his tank mate Geraldina but she is completely ignoring him so far

Gerald (on the left) has his new friend in his tank now! Geraldina passed her parasite check isolation period and went into the tank today.
Friend for Gerald found!! I called her Geraldine because I have no imagination
This is a big deal because I’ve been searching for another snail to share Gerald’s tank for a couple of months now

TINY SNAIL ASDFGHJGKH
After a massively long hiatus - we are back! They are big now, and set up with a pretty snazzy tank in our new house. Here is big Floman suspended on the side of the tank, eating a bit of courgette I put on their face :3
One piece of sad news is that littlest Floman didnt make it :( To be honest I was kind of expecting it, they had never really grown as fast as the others since the beginning, despite having loads of access to food etc. Just went to sleep and didn’t wake up. Poor snail baby.
But the good news is the others are thriving and seem really happy in their new set up.

Everyone meet Squishy! The snail I found hiding in my succulents when I went to pot them.
Needless to say I’ve built him his very own home

and Sylvester (white with brown stripes)……
finally finished the terrarium
I have some live pothos and English ivy in there, as well as some various mosses; hoping they hold up well with the humidity. Still need to get a small food dish, but I cannot WAIT for the snails to arrive!!
Can’t talk right now
I’m doing hot girl shit
