Shell Turning White?

[Bumblebee]

Ive notcied that the tip of my snails shells, especially the fulicas, is turning a bit white, does anyone have any idea why? They arnt even adult.
Anyone got any idea why? Could it be the substrate, or is it just something that is happening since they are growing still?
Using natural garden peat

I've noticed this too and I think it just comes down to wear and tear. Even the little Grove and White lip snails I find in the wild usually have this discoloration.

It just happens sometimes, and a little polishing with seasme seed oil may help to seal this layer and prevent peeling...
