One day, my dad was going home from work. He took a shortcut through somewhat tall grass. When he finally got home he noticed a "dirt" on his bag so he grabbed it and with big surprise he found out, that it was a small Cepaea Hortensis. Fortunately he didn't break small snail's shell. I was on a school trip at that time, so he just told me on the phone. I was told, he was trying to escape for a while. Now he is a bit larger, healthy snail. He really likes carrot and he's a bit strange too - he doesnt want to eat cuttlefish bone, nor he wants to be at the "calcium rock" in the tank. Either way he was extremely lucky to somehow attach to my dad's bag, who just happens to have a son that keeps snails

That's really sweet. To get him to eat calcium, you may want to smear food over the cuttlefish or calcium rock.
