Juveniles bred by us here at the Gastropod shop. Yumiko and Delilah are the parents, both unrelated and healthy adult snails. The parents measure 15.5cm and 16cm shell length - measuring over 500g each!

Two clutches will be available, first group of 9 (hatched) and second group of 13 (in the incubator).

These guys will be £20 each, discounts available in pairs and trios, and will be ready once approximately 6cm shell length/post culling process. All currently hatched babies are wild type with some being lighter bodies and some darker.

These babies are doing so well already! Contact us to join our waiting list if you would like to be notified when they are available. (Likely to be June/July time)

Powder and Mouse have been with us since November 2025, when they were rehomed with potential mum Yumiko. They have been doing well with us, but have been suffering a persistent fungal infection on the shell. This went untreated for most of their life and has left them severely stunted in size. At more than 18 months old, these tiny snails have been left with organs exposed due to shell deformation. We initially tried a course of bee pollen paste, hoping for a natural remedy, but as the infection persisted we have resorted to more aggressive treatment.

Currently we are treating with Rivanol after having removed some of the infected shell - this treatment plan is already showing terrific growth, with Mouse having grown an entire layer of new shell over his lung.

If we continue to see improvement, these loves will come available for adoption during the summer months. However, it is still a possibility that they will remain here as permanent residents if they do not improve enough to leave our care.
