Well, in my garden, I have found loads of small snails sort of flattend looking. One type is a yellowy colour and the other white with black swirls?.. Can you keep these as pets?
Renamed - CroSSLeSS

Can you replicate the native habitat where you found them? Do you know what they eat, and if it's something like algae or fungus, can you provide it? Those would be my first questions.
Actually, I guess my official first questions would be do you have a camera and can you take a pic of the snails for identification purposes?

I'm not going too... I was just wondering if it's capable in captivity. And i'll try and get pics when I go and get more batteries for camera! lol
