Hope this is a milk snail

I'm really wanting a milk snail, hope this is it or else will set them free to the garden.

Looks like a young Cornu aspersum / Helix aspersa with a slightly unusual light-coloured shell.


Milk snails (Otala lactea) aren't found in the wild in the UK.

Beautiful snail though. Will it keep that colour till adulthood?

Looks about right for a juvenile Otala to me. When younger they have more pronounced brown stripes
