pants shellgrowth on iredalei

[igby]

I've been looking at my new iredalei and although he's putting on new shell very quickly the condition is terrible. He's exceedingly well fed and has constant cuttlebone access and he eats it constantly.
His new shell is a different,lighter colour but it looks really rough, not at all smooth like my fulica's shell growth. I've ordered the snail multibuy from Snails2die4 I'm hoping this will help.
Is this just an iredalei thing?
Hello to everyone who read the title and thought my snail was growing pants

Just had a close look at my two new ones from Virginia and it looks a bit rough but not too bad.

Usually down to inbreeding...

Rofl.

I have the same thing with one of mine, it has gotten a bit smoother as he's gotten bigger though so yours might too.

I also have a similiar thing with 2 of my two-tones but they started out smooth, then went pants and now it's getting smooth again lol

You should see my boyfreinds Iredalei from the same batch-
It seems to have a third eye.
Seriously, we thought he had a wee bit of moss on his eye stalk but on closer inspection it looks like a poorly formed eye 'lump'
Three eyes!

Any chance of a pic of him?
(the snail, not your boyfriend ;D )

Yeah I'll see if I can take a picture of him , he's still quite a wee snail but I'll see what I can do

*boyfreind looks dejected*
