I dont want them to die. Cant wait for them to breed! They are quiet and can't run away! Very interesting to watch, especially when feeding them. The only bad thing is that there is a lot of slime

I love my snails - its amazing how fascinating they are to watch! They also come really cheap, and they don't cost much to look after. The only thing I'm not sure about is the amounts of web pages with info on them...I've just been looking for how to tell how old the snails were, and I cant find t ...

Giant African Land Snails are ideal for children to look after, as they are so easy to keep. They are not noisy, do not smell and don't take up a lot of space. They can grow to about 20cm long and 15cm high, so bear that in mind if you buy baby snails!
Snails are Hermaphrodites, they carry both s ...
