P.s What are all theor names? Peeka & Boo, Vanilla & Creme, and Snowflakes. Peeka is the one on the right, eating the banana, Boo is another laid back one, right bottom corner, then it's Creme on Boo's left, the left hand bottom is the greediest Snowflakes, and the one you like is Vanilla. ;D (I have written their name down (almost on their shells) so I can remember them all. My friend stil has 19 ablino margies including yours.

19?!?! and shes debating on whether to get rid of one?!? lol LOL, she is debating of the price, not to get rid of one. Wish you live near me, you will like her very much. I met her...ummm in a pet shop (surprise suprise) and we became best friends after all these years (more than 15 yeas). I thought she was nuts when I first met her, but now I confirm she is nuts.

*Just an update* Thanks for Paul's suggestion and Sarah...and espeically Sian to reassure me my worry might be nothing. Appreciate that very much. (Sorry if I have left anyone else but thank you.) Check on Creme this morning, I did not see the "seal, gluey layer" and I did not wake her up since she looks pretty normal to me. I have turned the house central heating up a little and also turned the heated bars and lights on in the bath room, that room temp is about 26 - 28 C right now. It is like a sauna in there and all my Margies seem happy and more active now. When I opened the lids of the 2 tanks, the heat really zoomed out. I will also take Eric's suggestion that I will put a swimming water bowl in for them, so they can have a dive in the water if they want to. At least Creme has not retracted herself and her little legs are slightly out. YES!!! Hopefully that will do the trick. May be as Sian said, Creme is just like her Freddie, it has mood swing. I know it's early days, but I am positive thinking that I am going in the right direction.

All my snails "retract" like that when they sleep. It's not really retraction unless their body goes right back in, it just sounds like she's a lazy one who likes her sleep And PMSL @ Sarah being shocked by 19 snails ROFL! ;D How much is your friend wanting for the snailies? I'm not asking for me, Kathy's sat here pestering me to ask - she's in love with Snowflake and Creme. Creme looks ovum to me (shell wise). They're all beautiful

They're all beautiful Does Kathy live with you or something? You 2 sound always seeing each other or using each other's computer. *Only cuiousity as I have read other posts and I got the impression that you 2 are very closed. Yes I am nosey. * Tell Kathy that she is NOT having Snowflake and Creme. Snokwflake is a fatty and is a greedy pig BTW. Mandy (My friend) is moving house and she is trying to sell a tiny part of her snails. I think she ask for £ 7 - 10 for her Albino margies, what I know of is she has some WD ones and CB ones, so I am not too sure which is which. ;D*Just wish Mandy will go and get a computer, so she can join the board!*

Kathy's my twin sister, and her computer is dead, so she borrows mine. She's here a lot because I'm disabled and have triplets, so when my hubby goes to take other kids to school she sometimes pops round to help out. Or sit on her arse and use my computer ;D

Ps. She says it's very reasonable for an albino margie - how much is she asking for postage? Or are they pick up only?

Isn't it nice to have a twin sister? Even just sit on her a$$ using your computer all day long. I used to dream that I have a twin sister when I was a kid. Ps. She says it's very reasonable for an albino margie - how much is she asking for postage? Or are they pick up only? I can arrange Speical next day delivery, it is usually just about £5.00 (I think there's only some pennies more.) I sent some dimis to Eric and Kevin in the past and it costs me £4.25 for the postage, but bear in mind they are just about 3 - 5 cm shell length snail-babies. I am not going to see Mandy until the weekend now and will persuade her to sell her Margies. They are her life but since she is moving house, she got to part with some IMO. ;D

When you've spoken to her, could you PM me with details/prices of her CB ones? That would be fab

Okay, I probably will see her on Sunday if everyone in the house behave. Will PM you. JFYI, they are all adults that she has got, I think they lay eggs but I have not heard that she's hatching them right now because of the situation for her right now. *I have already told her I ain't going to help her or the snails are moving into my house, full stop. *

WC isn't a problem, it'd just be even better if they were CB. And thanks!

Bl**dy hell, you reply faster than I post. Don't worry she has both and they seem doing well to me except I picked a lazy b*gger from her lot like Creme.

Let me talk to her first and get back to you, after all the snails are not mine, so I need to know which one is going and which one is staying etc. I will PM you. PS But if you want any baby dimis (I know), then you can have them right now as I have a few left of the babies left. As far as I know, they are pretty healthy, active and eating well. I can see the shell growth etc. LOL BTW, why did you have to have a word with OH? I thought we just sneak in the snails (or other stuff) without needing to inform OH!
