| You Need To Check My Snails....photo by JJKADRY(op): 8:52pm On May 25, 2015 |
I've been keeping these snails over 2-3 months now.There specie is archatina archatina. I feed them in the morning after little water sprinkles. They eat carrot,water melon, paw paw and its leaves,etc. I wash their shells usually once in three weeks after which they'll be fed as well.Their mating depends,interested snails search for others which are also interested and approach one another for several minutes or even, hours. They lay egg as much as 150-200 and they get to 10 days before hatching. Infact, it's fun watching them moving around.

ozycy:You can't take them to d market shey? Just advertise to ur neighbours and they can as well advertise for you. So let me ask, like how many months or years do you notice they're at their fullest grown? |
