snails in ohio. (USA)

[corvuszombie]

so i live in ohio and iv looked and looked and cant find any where that tells me what kind of snails are in ohio.
i am starting to find snails in my yard and in my woods only thing tho there all the same kind and none are bigger then a BB (about 2mm)
are those babies or are they full grown and just are small snails?
i cant take a good pic to show you what they look like since there so small and the pics i do have i cant resize to fit the attachment agreement.
does anyone have a link that might help me out?

Thanks,
CorvusZombie

It's possible they are babies of a species that lays eggs before winter to hatch as the first thing in the spring. Are they all similar and about the same size? Could very well be a batch of eggs that has hatched, but impossible to say for sure without photos.

Btw, for a free resizing tool try www.irfanview.com or www.picasa.google.com
I used IrfanView for years and years as my primary photo tool, though now I use Picasa mostly thanks to Android making it so easy. But I highly recommend IrfanView, it does a lot of neat organising tricks on photos, most functions also in batches. It's a top notch tool if you keep photos on your hard drive or don't want to let an online gallery automatically adjust stuff for you.
