more things i’ve discovered after 2 years of raising garden snails:

[mydogisabutt]

- they will wiggle their eye stalks in excitement
- they have favorite places to sleep and favorite friends to sleep with
- they’re good for your skin so let them run around on ur face!!!
- they can feel their shells, which means they can feel u pet them (pet gently!!)
- u can help a snail with a broken shell by giving it eggshells or cuttlebones to scrape (the calcium helps them patch up!)
- they like a change of scenery and will explore all day if u change something
- absolute cuddle bugs. love to snuggle with u, with friends, with dirt
- u can hear them chew!! listen closely when u feed them….. asmr
- as distinct as snowflakes, every single one is different!! i can tell all of my snails apart easily
- babies. absolute baby children
- speaking of babies, baby garden snails are no bigger than raindrops and translucent… delicate!! keep in a separate enclosure until they’re bigger!! baby jail!!!
- some snails are shy……… kiss them. they are important
