I currently don't have much pictures of my snails since my camera is broken, and every single one of the pics are shot by my phone. I'll upload more when I have the time to do so. This one's my retic. Took this pic right after the arrival and ze's been growing like heck after that. And ze eats just about everything I offer.  More pics are on their way... |

 Soini the white jade. He's my first snail and all the mistakes have been on him... He's a little tiny for a jade but I'm seeing some progress on the shell growth ^^ |

Btw, that rock looking thing in the left corner isn't a rock so don't worry about it.
It's a cave made from plastic

Soini, Mannerheim and Kekkonen  Finnish, historical/recent political figures, great names for snails |

You have nothing to worry about in terms of creature naming. Honestly, it's very likely I'd name all my snails Snail if it was just me ever seeing them - never in my life have I spontaneously named even my toys or anything with human-like names, I've only done it when told to. I do in fact currently have many Snails, lol, plus a few that have such strikingly different features that it's just easier to talk about them if I call them things like "Big Eyes". The only one with a more sensible name ("Lemon") was named by my boyfriend I guess it describes my situation well that I'm thinking how funny it would be if I had an Arianta called Leena Lehtolainen, but for the life of me I can't decide who should have that name.  |

lol morningcoffee I have a JJ Lehto, because he has a bright red stripe on him like the "speed stripe" on sporty cars. Big Eyes is much faster than him though! |

What a snail! I like how he gives you a dirty look, too |

Yeah! He's just hanging around with his friends and family and suddenly this huge tentacle monster comes right at him. He tries to run away and hide but he's too slow. The monster grabs him. He's scared for his life and begging it to stop and not to hurt his family.
Then the monster takes the scared little snail and bathes him :>
