why do my snails burrow so much?

[dotopita]

hi! i recently got 2 baby giant african land snails. i have 3 milk snails as well. i notice that the milk snails love climbing and always climb up the side of the tank, while the GALS always dig and burrow into the dirt. i have never seen them climb the side of the tank at all. is this just a personality thing? i got them about 2 months ago so they might still be adjusting to the new home. any way i can make them feel more welcome?

Some snails are diggers, others are climbers. Sounds like yours are more into digging. In some cases, being too hot or dry could also cause them to hide away in the soil.
