Hi, I have two achatina fulicas. I got Florence about 4months before Arnold. Arnold is very active and seems healthy, and Florence just likes to be buried and sleeps alot. Both seem healthy, but theres one problem: very confusing poop. Arnold poops in the ceiling, and theres usually a green film/slimey thing covering the poop. Florences poops are normal, but one day the other end of the poop was transparent and kind of slimey. I'm not too worried about Florence but extremely confused about Arnold. Has anyone else had this kind of problem, or does anyone know what causes it?

What are you feeding them? The poop is usually the same colour as the food.

Yeah, depends on what you feed them. Have your fed them anything green, like peas?

Sounds like it's poop containing material from the digestive glands, which is normal. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digestive_system_of_gastropods |
