i have been experimenting with my snails and breeding and i think i have found away to get snails to breed and lay eggs i have tested this on 5 species and 4/5 have laid eggs so far under the experiment and some are hard to breed
Sucsess

• Light Skinned Archachatina marginata
  
• Limicolaria flammea
  
• Unidentifed Archachatina "Lagos"
  
• Megalobulimus(sp?) oblongus haematosis(just laid today)
  

Unsuccsessful so far

• Achatina Achatina
  

if anyone would also like to attempt this experiment please contact me so we can try it on a broader amount of snails/species

I'd be interested in trying this with Achatina Iredalei and albino Archachatina Marginata var. Ovum

I have been sucessfull with many snail species, Arch: ventricosa, marginata ( suturalis, ovum, albino),degneri, also Achatina: fulica rodatzi, tiger, immaculata, other Achatinidae:Lignus intertinctus, ... Also local snails: Rumina decolata, Helix aspersa maxima,Oestophora barbula, O. lusitanica, the very rare and vulnerable Gittenbergeria turriplana( listed on Red Book of Endangered species) on which I already managed to get lot of hatchlings and now some are already adult. I already put some back to nature on their native habitat ( only on a field on south portugal).I ´m currently keeping more species, but it´s too soon to be sure if I´m doing ok.
