Posted - 03/06/2012 : 16:13:06 So every few weeks I give their shells a scrub with a soft bristled brush get all the poop, mud and mess off them.
Having a little look out the window and the edible green world around them
I cant believe how big they are getting now, soon I'll have to deal with them one at a time. They also are starting to feel heavy.
A snail treat, dog biscuits with calcium powder and water. Well they seem to love it.

Posted - 03/06/2012 : 21:14:06 I give them my dog's biscuits, wainwrights. They eat wet dog food too (and cat food but I dont have a cat) I mix a little bit of calcium in to help with their shells health, they also have a cuttle bone in 24/7 to munch on and egg shells when I've made boiled eggs. I feed them;
Lettuce, there every day food Cucumber once a week Apple as a treat Spinach, a treat Dog food as a treat Corn Flakes (not a night the crunching will drive you mad, best just before you go out)

Lovely snails, and so shiny! I will mention the dog biscuits, calcium and water to my friend as her new snail has only eaten cucumber so far. What sort of dog biscuits are they? |

Posted - 03/06/2012 : 16:42:13 They love the dog biscuits, they will eat the whole lot, they seem to really like the calcium powder in water too, they drink that first. Its not a lot just a small pinch but they like it for their shells I think. |
