Hi all, My youngest snail has some shell issues, I think. First there are these rough colour bands on the newer part of her shell. She was a really picky eater for the first couple months, but she eats well now, and she does also eat her cuttle bone often. The second thing is these white spots on the underside of her shell. My older snail also has these white spots, but her shell is very smooth and shiny. How do I help the shell colour to be more even, and not have these random dark bands? What can I do about the roughness of her shell? It feels strong/thick, but just really rough. Also, are these white spots something I should be concerned about? They are both Grove snails, wild caught on the west coast and have been my pets since April of this year. Here are the photos, I can add more if people find it helpful. photos.app.goo.gl/mXcxvXJmym4b3JJE6
