Snail Care - Blog Posts

I arranged my large terrarium today 💕 Fotunately my sister helped me 😊 There is so much space to explore or hide for my snails 🐌 I love ist 💕

I will redesign it a little bit, to create more space for climbing, but I'm already quite pleased 🥰

We had a little family bath time 🛁

I use a really soft kids toothbrush and clean water. But you could also use a soft sponge.

If you clean your snails it's important that the snails don't feel stressed during their bath. If they start making bubbles, bath time is over!

And after the bath, my snails always get some treats as a little reward 🐌🥒

After my chamomile tea treatment, Torte is finaly feeling better again 🥰

They sleep and eat normal again and their are also quite active lately! I'm really relieved 💕 And they even got their shell a little bit filthy 😂 so maybe I need to clean them the next days 🚿

Little snail tip 🐌

My little Torte wasn't in the best condtion when I found them, two weeks ago. They lay on their side and they didn't eat for days.

They getting better after like four days. But three days ago, they didn't sleep at their normal place nor did they eat or leaving their shell anymore.

Ofcourse I was worried, so today I started a little treatment!

They got a little bath with chamomile tea and cuttlebone. It's important to take care, that the snail didn't drown!!

They finally left their shell after a little bath time and I put them on some cucumber. They even start to eat the cucumber 💕 It seems like they already feeling a little better 🥰🐌

I'll repeat this treatment, the next days and hopefully Torte will getting better soon. I'll let you know!

I just wanted to share this little tip, maybe it will help someone with their snails 😊

I prepared the lunch for my snails. Some salad and some parsley from our garden. I also cut some tomato, some corn and some cucumber for them 🥒

Hopefully they enjoy their snack 😍

By the way the withe pulver is cuttlebone, to provide some calcium. I also feed them some eggshell from time to time 🐌
