I bought these snails a few weeks ago now.. been trying to figure out what type they were.. At first glance I thought they were completely black but when I got them home and looked over them again they are green with yellow and purple colors in the shell...  Does this lower one look like a female?   |

Hi lykeomgee, welcome to the forum. Nice pics and beautiful snails!  I don't know enough about those kinds of snails to answer your questions, though, so I hope someone else here will chime in with some info. |

Cool I went searching on google again after it was mentioned they were trapdoor snails.. Found out they are Black Japanese Trapdoor Snails.. I'm happy I know what they are now
Thank you very much everyone
