Description
They are baby achatina fulica jade snails. They have been throught the correct culling prosses to ensure the health if the are up to standard. They can make a great pet for all ages with the correct research. There basic care includes
Cage:
-Can be a plastic bin with heat mat on side for cooler months to ensure steady temperature
-and having a thermometer and hydrometer can help keep the environment steady
-substrate coco fiber is easy and comes in a dehydrated brik from reptile section at most pet shops and you should have the snails shell length plus an inch of substrate
-for decor you need a hide I use half a plastic plant pot (don't use ceramic or hard things as they might fall and break there shell). You need a cuttlefish for calcium you can also get from the bird section from pet shops. Other things like plants moss and leaf litter can be added to
Diet:
-variety of veg and fruit as treat
-protein I use snail protein mix from etsy and feed once a week
-calcium I put cuttlefish in cage at all times
General care:
-Spray cage with water to keep humidity up
-turn over substrate weekly so it is easy to burrow and check for eggs as snails are hermaphrodites so can produce fertile eggs by themselves
-if eggs are found you can crush or freeze them
-these snails need around 20°-22° temperature and 70%-80% humidity
