Hey, I have two Helix Aspersas. I usually feed them what was recommended on this forum. Up to date, I fed them tomato, cucumbers, carrots, and bananas once. For some reason, one of the snails (he’s slightly bigger than the other one) doesn’t eat as much as the other one. Everytime I put new food in, one snail rushes to it and the other eats just a few bites and leaves. Is there a problem with him or is it just unique for him?

Tomato, cucumbers, carrots, and bananas at once? If that's the case, then that is too much food at once for just 2 helix aspersas... 😵 If you meant that is what you have given them thus far on a rotational cycle, then that is perfectly fine. 🙂 A few bites is probably all he wants. He probably eats more when you are not looking; perhaps when you are asleep.

Yes, I agree with Cashell thats nothing to worry about. As long as he still eats something and even then snails can be perfectly healthy but only eat a little every few days. Especially if he is a larger snail he is likely closer to adulthood if not an adult already and does not need as much food to keep him going.
