I'm so excited, I had to share . . . I have two new snail babies coming to live with me  1 Albino Reticulata and 1 Yellow Shelled Rodatzi They should be here tomorrow and I'm looking forward to introducing them to Samson and Delilah. Now for the trouble bit . . . I kinda haven't told hubby . . . I figure he never looks in the snails tank so he'll probably never notice . . . and if he does I'll just say that I told him about it aaaaaages ago and he must have forgotten. If alll that fails I'll just have to say I'm sorry (and try to mean it) - It's better to ask forgiveness than permission |

Dont worry so am I! I have just bought 2 marginata ovums, been looking for them for ages and finally found some, so bit the bullet and got them. I look after them and feed, clean etc so it shouldnt be a problem, he just likes to think he has some authority over me! (He doesnt!)

if he doesn't like snails, he probably won't even notice |

I fessed up I can't lie to or keep a secret from him to save my life lol Shockingly he was alright with it. Since I take care of them and he doesn't have to go near them he really doesn't care I'll post some pictures when they get here |

I think I justified it well enough that he couldn't really argue. I quit smoking and hit the two week mark yesterday so I said they were a reward for doing well. Of course I would have gotten them regardless, but he doesn't need to know that bit!

Congrats on quitting smoking! I quit in February 1985, and it's been great. I feel so stupid for having started smoking in the first place, but I'm really proud of myself for quitting and having stuck with it.
