My Caracolus Marginella egg's which were laid July 20th have started to hatch, I have seen 4 tiny baby snails amidst the eggs, I have placed tiny amounts of lettuce, and crushed cuttlefish in with them, heres a picture of the adults  I will get a pic of the babies now |

All baby snails are cute, i found two Helix Aspersa mating in my garden so i brought them in and put them in a tank with plenty of food and after they had laid the eggs and the eggs had hatched and grown a bit i let them all go in my garden, i just wanted to make sure nothing happened to them in their first weeks of life  |

Most of the eggs have now hatched, theres quite a few tiny-yellow baby snails, about 2mm...And also the adults have laid around 10-15 more eggs tonight, I have placed them in the same container the baby's are in, hopefully these will all hatch in around 14 days time also
