Caught this one doing silly yoga, while the other snail is just a sleepy little one

Theophanu and Eustochium were keeping each other company at the water dish. These two love each other. They are always near each other, constantly seek each other out, and yes, have copious amounts of snex. I have been keeping snails on and off since I was a child and I have never seen two snails who are as fixated on each other as these two are.

Do y'all's snails just intensely stare at you sometimes and you sit there and wonder what's up and it turns out their hungry so now you're having desk time because you spilled dry food and it turns out that's exactly what they want?? Yeah, me too 😭

Also! It's been a long time since I've updated but Sheila is doing amazing!! Hard shell, constant source of Calcium, still picky when it comes to food though I've found some things that work and are good for her ❤️ Thank y'all again for helping me when her shell tore. She's doing fantastic and has had a MASSIVE growth spurt since then!

A BABY 😭😭😭💕

I brought it home, what can I do to keep it from getting stressed?

He kept dropping the bean in the bath!

I love when my snail eats something so i can’t stop taking pics

Hi! I have a biiiiig issue right now. I got a huge infestation of fungus gnats in my terrarium, to the point that it smells awful in there. I'm not sure what to do right now because I don't have enough substrate to do a full change of it, and I wouldn't want to actually change it fully, but I really am at a loss... The problem is so bad that I have these fungus gnats fly all around my house. I tried to pour hot water down the drains, make traps with apple cider vinegar, get more springtails, but nothing works. The fungus gnats are starting to slowly reduce the population of isopods in my terrarium, and I'm worried they might harm my snail. What should I do?? Please help, any tips are very appreciated

So he seems a little better. He was fully retracted earlier, but came out of his shell as soon as he felt something change.

I took this video a couple minutes ago. As you can see, there's still a little wobble going on, but not as badly as it was two days ago. I took another video like two minutes later where the wobble was pretty much gone, but unfortunately I can only post 1 video... In case there's a way around it, please share. I've got a couple other videos on this topic I'd like to share for more information.

So to sum it up, he's very active, but is able to retract fully. He still has a slight eye wobble, but not constantly (most of the time he seems fine).

I don't know if this is something I should be worried about or not...

I also have another snail that's been doing weird things.

I intended to add some videos of her in this post as well, but I can't so I'm just going to describe it.

These two are the only ones of my snails that don't have names yet, since they're still pretty young and I haven't found good names for them yet, so it's just gonna be "he" and "she" for now.

These past 2-3 days, I've noticed that she's been moving significantly slower. When she moves, it literally looks like she's moving in slow motion. Like a cartoon snail or something.

This might sound like a silly thing to worry about, but she was moving normally before, and now it's been a couple of days where, every time I saw her move, it was ridiculously slow. If she moves at all...

She's also been doing a lot of "freezing". She's fully out and looks completely normal, like she's just crawling around, except she's not...

I've watched her sit like that a couple of times in the last few days. She's always completely out and looking like she's being active, sometimes her head is even in the air and it looks like she's looking around, but then she doesn't actually look around and just stays in that position completely still. Sometimes for several minutes. It's actually kinda creepy.

When I poke her, she does retract, although I haven't seen her fully retract yet, since I didn't want to bother her too much.

Since both of these started around the same time, I'm actually a little worried now, that there is something bigger going on... Or I just have two very weird snails, I don't know.

Does anyone know about snail health and can tell me if this could be signs of something being wrong?

I just checked on the snails again, and I noticed one of the babys also doing a weird eye bending. Not wobbling, just bending, like they sometimes do when the humidity is too high or something, but only with one eye. That made me think of another snail that did a similar thing with both his eyes going in two completely different directions, but he was mating at the time, and I thought he was just making a funny mating face or something.

All of these things combined kinda make me think that there's actually something wrong... But I have no clue what!

The temperature is around 20°c and the humidity varies between 45-60%. Most of the time it's around 50%.

I feed them regularly with zucchini and sweet potato, and every now and then they get some protein (I make a protein mix with mealworms, shrimps, pea flakes and algae. I crush all of them into a powder and then mix it with water when I feed it to the snails) and nothing has changed in their enclosure.

The only thing I can think of right now, what could maybe be a problem, is that I sometimes have the heater on in my room, and sometimes I don't, so maybe there's sudden temperature changes? But the heater is all the way on the other side of my room, so I didn't think that the temperature changed as much for them. I'll check that later once my room has heated back up. Edit: I checked it last night and the temperature difference is like 1-2°c, so I don't think that's the issue.

Any help and ideas would be greatly appreciated!

They are pea sized

Like some others on here, I have gotten an amber snail on some plants and decided to keep it. It has since reproduced and I now have an “army“ of babies.
I initially started with a jar and have since purchased a glass enclosure but I am afraid to physically move the babies out of the jar. Momma will go in and out, but the babies have never left. I am finding it hard to finish setting up the tank with a jar in it.
I read that these snails are detritivores native to marshlands and will eat a variety of leaves, algae, and fish food. A couple of times I have had mold blooms and had to remove leaves. Is there a reliable way to prevent this?

I am doing my best with absolutely no experience and I have struggled to find good information about the amber snails since they do not seem to be common pets.
Thank you for any advice provided!

I missed some eggs…

The most lower part has weird bumps? Abd the middle part looks like a little crack

Yes I did refill it!

This is CC (Car Crash, for long) my rescued snail! She's doing great, her setup gets regular upgrades as I get her settled in. This morning she wanted me to be aware that her "pool" is empty. This is the cover of a random bottle that I grabbed when I was mid-rescue. It's ~1.5 inches across, for scale. I guess that's the next thing I'm upgrading!

He did a little wobbly bobbly dance yesterday 👀

Does anyone know why he's doing this?

I think it's super cute, but I'm a little worried that there might be something wrong with him. Especially since his left eye stem (our right) seems to be a little bent.

He's been behaving normally, I've seen him out of his shell twice since then and both times, there was no wobbling, but he was eating both times, so maybe he was focused on eating or something?

Since he seems fine otherwise, I don't think it's something serious, but if anyone knows why he is doing this, I'd appreciate it.

Otherwise just enjoy his little eye dance!

Update: I just checked on him and he seems to be sleeping, but outside of his shell. He's fully out, his right eye is just the little stem, but the left eye is completely out. I'm getting maybe a little bit worried now. I know that they sometimes do this and it can be normal, but combined with the wobbling and the bent eye, I'm a little unsure...

Usually snails bury themselves to lay eggs but my guy Elderberry was like actively crawling while popping out eggs. Is that normal? Like I thought he was just Shorny, but nope it was an egg lol. They were just randomly all over the place. 🤷‍♀️ he wasn’t stressed or anything bro was just crawling and popping lol. Did it just happen so fast bro was like F it they going everywhere?
