Just thought I'd introduce Malibu (Boo for short) who arrived this morning. A huge thank you to Paul at NWE. Malibu was the "maybe" I told you all about on Sherman's thread. She's a bit gorgeous!  This is her just after she arrived - she's obviously very shy bu has a gorgeous shell!  "Shall I or shan't I?"  "Oooo I smell food!"  "I know it's round here somewhere!"  Heading towards the snail mix (I'm leaving her in peace now *lol*). |

I should say these pics don't do her shell justice - it's a deep lovely conker brown, much darker than Sherm's. he's an ovum like him and is a wee bit bigger, at 13cm with new growth!

LOL we can hope for pale body from Malibu and pale shell from Sherms, and we'll end up with Sherman's normal body and her normal shell LOL. ;D
Hey he has to approve yet, he's not fussy though, but she might be!
