Are you sure it's a leatherleaf and not a pancake slug? They look similar and I've never known leatherleaf to get to 4inches x

They don't receive any additional heating at the moment and I keep them very similar to that of my helix pomatia who are happily mating x

I currently have a group of 4 helix lucorum and want them to breed, I've had them a few month they are between 3 and 4cm big. I've tried lowering temperature as well as increasing it. Any help would be appreciated.
Also have 2 helix cincta that I would like to breed also of a similar size to the h.lucorum x

You could try them on raw chicken, as for the cat food as long as it has low salt content they can eat it x

Rumina decollata can successfully survive and breed on a vegatable only diet, I used to keep a decent sized colony without any cannibalism occurring. Only thing I suggest is feed plenty of sweet potato each feed aswell as other vegatables and fish flakes (goldfish food) mixed with water once a week to make up for the protein x

Defenitly Rumina decollata they also eat vegetables and don't necessarily need to eat snails to survive x

I'm sorry I'm not much help with this snail, I'm slowly expanding my collection to more unusual snails and never seen these offered for sale before. They seem to be thriving in their current conditions (lots of eating and pooping) and readily taking calcium with new growth on the smaller snail, I'll have to look more into what this species actually is if it's not 'cyclotus adamsi' x

Also I'm not sure where they were found as I got them from a friend who gets them imported x

Also don't feed it iceburg lettuce and cucumber as they aren't good for snails, Rey using romaine/little gem lettuce, courgette, sweet potato ... All are good for snails x

It looks like an albino tiger snail (achatina achatina) they like temperatures ad about 26-28℃ if it's burrowing all the time the temperature may not be getting hot enough for it x

Post by robandcath on Mar 3, 2015 10:28:06 GMT
They did start eating sweet potato, romaine lettuce and mushrooms after some persistence. They wouldn't touch any other veg x
